Feedback is a gift. It allows us to see who we are and how we can improve ourselves. I truly believe in feedback and think you should always ask for it when you really want it and are willing to make a change in your life.

I also believe feedback should always be positive because we learn best from what we do great and we are more open to suggestions when they are positive. Negative feedback closes us down, causes us to become defensive and never leads to positive changes.

With this said, why do others feel it important to give us negative feedback when we do not ask for it? Have you ever noticed that you can walk into a club in an outfit you love and you will notice people turning their heads to judge what you wear and give you facial expressions on their approval. Did you ask for their feedback? Do you deserve to be treated like that?

You allow people to treat you the way they do. You have to stand up for yourself and say, no I do not want your negative feedback. In time, you will learn not only to stand up for yourself BUT you will learn to not allow unwanted negative feedback to affect your life.

This is your life so why should you allow negative judgements into your life? You have a right to stand up for yourself and let people know how you want to be treated.
