Here’s a morning lesson:

when someone hits you with unfavorable feedback on your work, don’t snap back right away. You might feel the heat rise and want to throw something spiteful their way, but don’t.

Step back. Sit with the feeling. Ask yourself if reacting in the moment will actually get you anywhere.

Instead, figure out the smartest way to handle it, keep your cool, and move forward on your own terms.

Best advice I’ve heard on the subject was this:

Allow yourself to believe, if even for a few moments, that what they said is truth. Once you have accepted the possibility that it is true, you can decide how you want to change, if at all.

If the criticism is constructive, try to reflect on it, otherwise assume the person is trolling and move on.

Right. This person was on the line so I had to sit and wait
