I have read two rather interesting articles for this blog, they all relate to feedback and learning about it, these articles deal with negativity and self doubt.
The first one I read was, Seven ways to crush self-doubt in creative work.
This article is rather useful and informative, as it should be. It goes through different things that people feel when it comes to self doubt and it explains how to deal with them and what they are about. For instance, it makes the point to not compare yourself to others, it creates unnecessary competition and is just an issue you'll create yourself, you will lose a sense of community with others in your field It also means you over work yourself to become "perfect".
That article goes through other points like, being vulnerable to a trusted community, embracing a growth mindset as it helps you see mistakes and grow from the. Another point thats good is try and be experimental with your work and setting goals within reason and in your skill set. The article is rather interesting and I highly recommend a read.
The second article I read was, How to Get Past Negativity Bias in Order to Hardwire Positive Experiences.
When reading this article, it talks about the Negativity Bias, this is something I have heard of before, its even when you experience a thing, even if two things equal are of equal intensity, the negative one stands out more to us than the positive and I can relate to this. We all have bad experiences and they leave us with a bad impression or experience and no matter how much positivity happens, we still remember the negative moment the most as it effects us more. The article tries to offer solutions to this issue and help us to try and think more positive and even try to surround ourselves with more positivity and try to link a positive with a negative one and try to keep the positive one in the foreground. In short try to balance the good and bad.
