      Looking for appreciation is different from looking for recognition ? What does it mean if someone says, "I'm not looking for recognition, but appreciation" May be recognition would involve tangible rewards in general? and appreciations happens through air?

      I recognised the fact that a piece of junk I had as a kid had appreciated in value drastically.

                                    One should look for recognition, appreciation comes later if you offered a good contribution.

                                      I think in this context the meaning of recognition means to be called out in a company email or in a meeting for doing a good job, or an award of some type. Appreciation would be more of an "atta boy" type thing, where good work is recognized but not made into a big formal thing.

                                        These terms could have many different connotations, or "shades of meaning," depending on the speaker and the social context. Both could be "abstract," or "concrete:" "Recognition" could be as abstract as just meaning that when a person first saw you they knew, instantly, who you were, or remembered meeting you before; or, it could be as concrete as being formally credited in some way for some action, or achievement. "Appreciation" could be as abstract as just referring to a "warm-fuzzy feeling" that someone feels towards you, that they "value" you; or, as concrete as referring to a specific gift given to you, or a service performed for you, as a reward. There could be many scenarios where one could imagine these words being spoken: "I'm not looking for recognition, but appreciation." How about: (yes, fanciful scenarios) 1. said defensively, by a programmer to a manager who is accusing him of being a show-off, and of deliberately making his peers work look second-rate. 2. said in exasperation by a person to someone they love who is always nagging them that they never say much when they are praised, or thanked. 3. said by someone being praised as a form of disclaiming special attention: an expression of modesty. 4. said sarcastically by someone who has been told they won't get a raise this year, but they are getting a new title, and new duties. 6. said to Dr. Jekyll by Mr. Hyde whilst Mr. Hyde is looking in the mirror :)

                                        "What Turing gave us for the first time (and without Turing you just couldn't do any of this) is he gave us a way of thinking about and taking seriously and thinking in a disciplined way about phenomena that have, as I like to say, trillions of moving parts. Until the late 20th century, nobody knew how to take seriously a machine with a trillion moving parts. It's just mind-boggling." Daniel C. Dennett
