Feedback and efficient behavior
Feedback is a valuable source of information that you can use to effect the changes you want. You need information that tells you what you’re doing well and where you’re going wrong.
Then you can use that information to plan tactics for bridging the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.

Don’t be afraid to ask for feedback
Asking how you could be a better partner, team member, friend, or leader from the people best placed to give you accurate feedback is a requirement for improving. Getting useful information in an ongoing, iterative loop gives you the opportunity to discuss solutions and make changes.
Of course, not all feedback is good. Sometimes it’s just noise. Knowing when to ignore feedback that isn’t useful or is badly intentioned can be just as useful as knowing when to seek out the kind of feedback that is instructive.

Feedback and opinions are not the same thing
- Feedback is based on observation and reactions to your specific actions. It does not aim to tell you what you should be doing; it simply seeks to enlarge your perspective on what you are doing.
- Opinions are just someone sharing how they feel about a particular aspect of the world – they have nothing to do with you in particular.

The power of feedback
When giving others feedback, ask yourself what information they might need to make meaningful change.
Giving good feedback requires an awareness of both what you’re saying, and how you say it.
- Make it personal, provide specific examples, and notice how things have changed over time.
- Reassure the person that you are trying to help them be a better version of themselves, that you are in their corner.
- Be aware of your tone. You’re a team member, not an accuser.
- Choose your timing wisely. At the end of a busy work day is probably not the time to give constructive feedback.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
