My Feedback Thoughts

Feedback is not really something I've had problems with. Like pretty much everybody, I don't like receiving negative feedback. However, I also understand that negative feedback can be one of the best ways at improving oneself. So I'm fine with receiving and giving negative feedback as long as its constructive. If the negative feedback just bashes my work without giving any suggestions on improvements, or some other such suggestion, then I disregard the feedback. With that said, I hold the opinion that any kind of feedback, positive or negative, can be useful so long as its intent is on giving suggestions for improvements.

Moving on, the first article I read was "14 Signs Your Perfectionism Has Gotten Out Of Control." I definitely have a perfectionist mindset with a large majority of the things I do. However, I don't have the extreme characteristics this article points out. My mindset is more in line with striving for perfection but also accepting that nothing in the world is perfect. The other article I read was "6 Bad Mental Habits That Sabotage Your Success." This was an interesting article to read since it touches on a subject we don't typical like thinking about. I've definitely struggled with self doubt and second-guessing myself in certain situations in the past and realize that these habits are bad. However, bad mental habits are probably one of the hardest things to overcome since they're typically deeply rooted in our minds. Improving on these mental habits is something I need to do as I keep growing as a person.

I found this image pretty humorous and thought I'd share it. It will definitely make you think twice if your complaint is worth it.
The number is the the hand-pin of the grenade.
