What you need to improve your life

What you need to improve your life

When you're stuck, you need feedback. You need information that tells you what you're doing well and where you're going wrong.

We all have areas in our lives where we'd love to see positive and meaningful change. But sometimes, we don't know how to keep moving forward. We do research and think of strategies. We try to implement a few tactics, but then we get stuck. We are unsure if we are going in the right direction.

Don't be afraid to ask for feedback

Getting helpful information in an ongoing, interactive loop allows you to course correct.

Asking how you could be a better partner, team member, friend, or leader from people who can give you accurate feedback can help you improve.

Seeking good feedback

If you want good feedback:

  • Be open to listening to the things you might not want to hear.
  • Explain that you want to identify your blind spots so that you can improve.
  • Be gracious with the results, even if they're unpleasant.

Some professions come with feedback. Writers have editors, athletes have coaches. If you need more feedback, consider hiring a coach as everyone can do with some improvement.

An opinion is not the same as feedback

Some feedback is just noise. Feedback is based on observation and reactions to your specific actions.

  • Feedback does not try to tell you what you should be doing. It tries to enlarge your perspective on what you are doing.
  • Opinions are just someone telling you how they feel about things. It may have nothing to do with you in particular.

How to give great feedback

Great feedback isn't about convincing others to do things your way - it is about giving them insight on how to improve on their own methods.

Giving feedback requires an awareness of what you're saying and how you say it.

  • Make the feedback personal. Give specific examples.
  • Reassure the person you are trying to help them improve on themselves.
  • Be aware of your tone. You are a team member, not an accuser.
  • Choose your timing wisely. The end of a busy workday is often not a good time for 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.

Ashley Anthony

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!

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Laetitia Berton

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!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.
