556: How to Find Wisdom in Feedback

We all receive tough feedback and we can easily take it personally. In this episode, Dr. Kamphoff shares three strategies on how to receive feedback and find wisdom in the feedback.  Remember that what people do and say is about them and not about you. When you receive feedback or criticism, ask yourself, "What about this person would make them give feedback in this way?" Next, if the feedback is really bothering you, ask yourself, "What does this tell me about what I believe about myself?" And then, use the learn, burn, return strategy to move on.   This Week’s Power Phrase: “I find the meaning in the feedback I receive.”  This Week's Quote of the Week: “It takes humility to seek feedback. It takes wisdom to understand it.” - Stephen Covey
