RE: Do you value feedback?

Great post @kubbyelizabeth

Constructive critism and making mistakes is one of the best ways to learn. At least I think so. Its very easy for us to live in our own bubble, and walk through life as though we are perfect.

Yeah, sometimes critism hurts deep, and while that feeling sucks THAT pain can sparked tremendous internal change, and if we are lucky, we come out of the emotional storm better for it.

All the best

Exactly, my thoughts and yours are in line. Which reminds I’ve should have also added that despite how you feel about a comment. How you think and act in response is what really matters.

I agree! A big part of life is how we react and handle what is thrown to us. I use to get really defensive when my partner would try and give me feedback. I know it came from a place of love, but it was hard for me to take at the time. Now I know and appreciate it, because there is no one I know that will be more honest to me about my circumstances and life.

Feedback still stings, but the following quote helps.

It's all in your head you have the power to make things seem hard or easy or even amusing. The choice is yours.
