Anyone can criticize or accept praise, but initiating a positive exchange is a hallmark of a difference maker.
Praise is nothing that accumulates. Praise is a sequence, especially if you've toiled for a long time. Praise does not pile up. So in a way, you can't get too much. I don't consider it to be a quantity that you can measure by volume.
