To be plain honest, people don't care. People care about the results and the great things they see. As long as what you're trying to build or create has not materialized, your efforts will always go unnoticed.
This is not to say others do not appreciate you, it is human nature to acknowledge what we can touch, see, smell, hear, and taste.
In your effort(s) to create or build something worthwhile and of importance, no matter how strongly you feel about it, others may not feel the same. Therefore, they do not care about it as much as you do. This is what you ought to understand in everything you do.
This merely means that in whatever your endeavor is, you should be your only true fan.
Do not expect others to clap for you for just an effort, they will only do so once those efforts have turned into something that can be seen, touched, smelled, heard, and tasted.
It is doing an injustice to yourself to blame others for not acknowledging your effort. It is also disingenuous of you to expect them to do so.
Remember, everyone is also putting in their own efforts in different areas of their own lives. So they do not really care. Understandably so.
So, until you win. Until what you are trying to do materializes, be your own cheerleader.
When what you do materializes and you win, never hold grudges against those who never acknowledged your efforts while you were still building, it would not be worth your peace. In the same breath, always appreciate those who did even when they did not have to.
Until you win, your efforts will always go unnoticed. So, win, and stop expecting applauses for mere efforts.
Keep in mind, no matter how big your effort may be to you, to the next person is just a mere effort.
