Feedback Thoughts

I think feedback is a crucial part of reaching one's full potential. The reason feedback is so important is because we are very limited in our ability to judge ourselves properly. We have an inherent blind spot because we usually have put forth our best effort in whatever we are doing so to us it appears perfect or at least hard to spot any room for improvement. We have to come to terms with the fact that our perception isn't the same as everyone else's perception. Our vantage point combined with others can result in unprecedented success. This is why it is also important to not be extremely sensitive and be able to receive feedback. This is because you and the one giving feedback are both aiming for the same goal. You must realize that the only thing in life that doesn't change, is that everything is always changing. This applies to you too, so whenever you receive critiques, you should not view it as personal because we are constantly changing and if we aren't, that's a sign that we are not doing things correctly. I read Why rejection hurts so much and Rewire your self-critical brain. Many of the ideas I just shared were reflected in these articles as well as other helpful tips.
