Learn from criticism and feedback from "summary" of The Confidence Code for Girls by Katty Kay,Claire Shipman,JillEllyn Riley
Criticism and feedback can be tough to take. Nobody likes to be told they're not doing something well or that they need to improve. It's easy to get defensive or dismissive when someone points out our flaws. But here's the thing - criticism can actually be really valuable if we're willing to listen and learn from it. Think about it this way: when someone takes the time to give us feedback, it means they care enough to help us grow. It means they believe in our potential and want to see us succeed. So instead of getting defensive, try to approach criticism with an open mind. Ask yourself: is there truth to what this person is saying? Could I benefit from making some changes or improvements?
Remember, nobody is perfect. We all have areas where we can grow and develop. And the only way we can improve is by being open to feedback and willing to learn from it. So the next time someone offers you criticism, try to see it as an opportunity for growth rather than a personal attack.
It's also important to seek out feedback proactively. Don't wait for others to point out your flaws - take the initiative to ask for feedback from teachers, mentors, and peers. This shows that you're committed to improving and that you value others' perspectives. And remember, feedback isn't just about pointing out what you're doing wrong. It can also highlight your strengths and help you build on them.
In the end, learning from criticism and feedback is all about having the confidence to embrace growth and change. It's about recognizing that we're all works in progress and that feedback is a valuable tool for self-improvement. So the next time someone offers you criticism, try to approach it with an open mind and a willingness to learn. Who knows - it might just be the key to unlocking your full potential.
