Questions To Ask Yourself When Facing Constructive Criticism
Questions To Ask Yourself When Facing Constructive CriticismQuestions To Ask Yourself When Facing Constructive CriticismReceiving constructive criticism of your work is par for the course for creative professionals. But it can still be hard to digest. Here are three questions to ask yourself to help you cope with critical comments.In an episode of The Golden Girls (dont judge me), Rose and Blanche decide to turn some of Roses crazy stories into a childrens book. And as with any new creative pspeciesnership, they start off in love with the idea and each other.I cant tell you how much I enjoy working with you, Rose gushes.Me too, says Blanche. You know why? Because were leid just partners, were friends. Good friends.I feel like I could say anything to you.Well of course you can, sugar plumEven criticize your artwork?Of course The whole point of collaborating is to get beyond our egos and come up with something we both like.Well, Rose says, this could use a few minor changes.Drop dead.A nd in just a few lines of dialogue, The Golden Girls has mapped the arc of basically every creative partnership. Ever.I dont care who you are, how many years youve been doing creative work, or how wonderful or talented or generous you or your anfhrer and colleagues are. You have lived this deflating moment, not once, but many, many times. And it often doesnt get any easier.Youve surely heard the advice Dont take it personally. Why doesnt it help? Because it goes against the very thing that makes us great at our jobs as creatives the willingness to get personal with our work to invest ourselves, express ourselves, take risks. And criticism, no matter how carefully articulated, can make us flinch, hesitate and withdraw. In short, its not just criticism, but the fear of criticism, that is the enemy of creative work.I want you to ask yourself these three questions every time you receive a bit of constructive criticism about your work. The goal is not to prevent the pain (good luck with that), but to move past it with confidence.1. What does the constructive criticism of the work mean to me?That is, beyond the fact that you spent time and effort on the work. Obviously, any investment on your behalf is going to make the work matter more to you. But your own personal narrative, that running ticker tape of thoughts in your brain, could be broadcasting a different message.meQuilibrium, a company that teaches resilience building (and, full disclosure, is a client of mine), has taught me to tune in to the narration guiding my responses below the surface of my consciousness. These are called iceberg beliefs because you rarely realize theyre even there.When your boss or a client says, I like the typography choice but its just not there yet about your logo design, what you may hear is If my ideas arent fully accepted, it means Im not talented, or, If Im criticized, my job is in jeopardy. Neither of these may be true. When you can separate your internal monologue from whats being asked of you, youll be less likely to be flattened by feedback.Check out the authors tips on building your personal brand.2. Am I reacting to the message - or the messenger?How we cope with criticism can depend heavily on whos delivering it. On a different project with a different person, negative feedback might not bother you one bit. Perhaps youve had tension or pushback from this particular person before. Or maybe you dont respect him or her, period.Make a conscious effort to separate the message from the messenger. Visualize removing the value of the feedback from the wrapping of this person. Consider the criticism on its own merits. If you resist or react harshly to feedback, you could damage relationships, not to mention your professional reputation. If you want to continue working with this person, client or creative team, take that into consideration.Read our tips on the art of giving constructive criticism.3. What else am I working on?I recommend asking this question not to divert your attention from the project at hand, but because if you dont have enough going on in your own creative life, you may be seeking far too much fulfillment or reassurance from your paid work. Its one thing to be deeply invested in your job - and another to need way too much from it. Make sure youve got artistic outlets or other side projects in the works to pour your creative energies into. That way, when the criticism from a client, colleague or boss comes, as it undoubtedly will, it wont sting nearly as much.Terri Trespicio is a writer and brand strategist, and the co-creator of Lights Camera Expert, a program for helping entrepreneurs, experts and authors get media attention for their big ideas.

Millennials still getting mom and dad to pay for rent, phone billsMillennials still getting mom and dad to pay for rent, phone billsJust because youre an adult doesnt mean youre independent. Even after they become fully-fledged adults, many Millennials still rely on their parents money to get by. More than half of Millennials ages 21 to 37 get financial assistance from their parents or a relative, Country Financial Security Index reports.For many, Mom and Dad are still footing the billMillennials get their parents to help pay for their phone bills (41%), groceries and gas (32%), as well as urgent day-to-day needs like rent (40%) and health insurance (32%). Although more millennials are beginning to head out on their own and live away from their parents, about 31% of young adults still lived at home with their parents in 2017.Needing their parents help should not be viewed as a failure to launch, but as a signal that Millennials need longer to reach financial independence. Two in five Millennials did not think they would be able to pay for everything on their own until at least age 25.Doyle Williams, an executive vice president at Country Financial, advised Millennials to take the long view if they wanted to reach financial independence Take simple steps such as building an emergency fund, saving for a down-payment on a home, and staying focused on your long-term goals.

8 Key Tips to Nailing a Phone or Video Interview
8 Key Tips to Nailing a Phone or Video Interview8 Key Tips to Nailing a Phone or Video InterviewYour palms sweat. Your mouth feels dry. You feel a bit shaky. No, youre not going on a first date youre just going on a job interview. But yes, sometimes those two things can feel the sameJob interviews can trip up even the most confident job seekers. Thats why you should always practice before an interview so that you build the necessary confidence to crush it. That said, there are some similarities and definite differences when it comes to phone or video interviews (and if youre applying for a remote job, chances are you might have to do a video interview). So take your best interview suit out of storage, and sit down to read unterstellung key tips to nailing a phone interview, a video interview, or bothHere are some tips for preparing for a phone or video interview1. Keep it quiet.Imagine sitting down to talk to a potential employer- and the doorbell suddenly rings. This sets off your S chnauzer, who starts barking like crazy. Which then wakes up your snoozing baby, as you stumble down the hallway to quiet them both (read Robert Kelly BBC interview). To prep for a job interview, make aya to put your pets away, and if you have small children at home, hire a sitter or have a friend come take them out for a little bit so you can conduct your interview in peace and quiet.2. Prioritize your paperwork. Theres nothing worse than shuffling through a pile of papers on your desk to use as reference for your job interview. If youre doing a video interview, it could make you look sloppy, and if youre doing a phone interview, well, the sound of rustling papers can be annoying. All you really need in terms of paperwork is your resume, the job listing, and some talking points or possible questions you might have for the employer. Three pieces of paper. Thats it.3. Take a breather. During any kind of interview, its easy to feel awkward if there are pauses between questions and ans wers. So be prepared to wait a second or two for your interviewer to ask you another question, or when you feel that youve answered a question accurately, take a moment for your interviewer to process what youve said and give him time to comment.4. Remember to smile. Even if youre doing a phone interview and your interviewer wont see you, that doesnt mean you shouldnt smile. Smiling as you speak can actually affect your tone and create a more uplifting inflection in your voice. It can actually make you feel more positive and friendly5. Write it down.Lets say that your interviewer gives you a great piece of advice or a contact name and number for you to follow up with. But wheres your pen? Ahhh, heres one Ack, no ink Instead of scrambling for a writing tool (or worse, trying to remember the information), make sure to have a pen that works right next to you to jot down any information that your interviewer gives you (like future colleagues names or email addresses), or to take a note in case youre afraid you might forget it aprs interview.6. Test your tech. Before any interview, you should always make sure that your equipment is functioning. If youre doing a phone interview, check your phone to see if youre in a possible dead zone, and if youre going to have a video interview, check your Internet connection to make sure its fast and furious. Ensure that you can easily access your Skype or whatever videoconferencing tool youre using to connect with your interviewer. You can always do a test run with a friend to make sure your settings (like your mic and camera) are all working.7. Clean it up.Clutter is a productivity killer, but it can also ruin your chances with a potential employer, too. Why? If an employer sees a messy desk, he might think that its a reflection of your work ethic and that your work will be subpar, too. So before the interview, organize your home office. Clear off your desk of all the clutter, coffee cups, and the plethora of personal items. Yo u dont have to make over your office into a minimalists dream, but it should look professional and clean.8. Sit up straight.Your mother told you a million times to sit up straight and never to slouch, and heres the reason why if you possess good posture, it can help you look more confident and believable. You should pay attention to your posture whether youre doing a phone or video interview, since it can affect how you speak. And if youre doing a video interview, try to make as much eye contact with the camera as possible, and not your screen.Doing interviews is an important part of the job hiring process.
