You can enjoy recognition without agreeing with every story told about your success.

Praise arrives with an explanation attached, and the explanation is tidier than what happened. People credit vision where there was improvisation, discipline where there was luck, a plan where there was a series of corrections. Accepting the applause does not oblige you to accept the account, and quietly adopting it makes the next thing harder, because you would be following a method you never actually used.

Enjoy the good word without correcting anyone in the moment. Privately, write what really happened, including the luck and the help, and use that version when you plan what comes next.
