Feedback Thoughts

Feedback Thoughts 

In life feedback is super important, it is what allows us to grow in whatever we might be doing at a certain point. I think it is important to approach how we give feedback carefully. We never want to be completely negative when giving feedback, because it's not likely whatever you maybe critiquing is completely terrible. 

After reading this article I really liked that three of the tips they gave which were never making excuses, do not put yourself down, and lastly, do not second guess yourself. When receiving feedback I think a lot of times we automatically perceive it as a negative thing, but in reality, it is just someone whose purpose is to make you better not tear you down. Instead of dwelling on what you did bad concentrate on what you did well and what you can do to improve next time. 

The biggest tip that stood out to me in this article was this: "Remind yourself that having growth areas is a good thing— it means you haven't maxed out on your potential". We should NEVER want to stop reaching our full potential if we do then that means we have just settled. Personally, for me, I never like to settle I always like to see how I can continue to grow and learn. 

Overall, we should never be afraid of feedback nor should we be afraid to give it to anyone. We should not approach the situation as malicious but rather out of good intent to make someone else better.

This past summer I spent my time interning at the Four Seasons Resort in Dallas. Although, I am not a hospitality major I was interested in the internship because I love interacting with people and like the idea of making someone dreams come true through their stay at the resort. When I have free time ( which is never), I enjoy spending time with my family at the lake, working out, and shopping. During the school year, I work at Orangetheory Fitness in Moore. I love working here because it is a fun atmosphere and it encourages me to work out. My favorite thing about OU is the football! I have grown up an OU fan and always look forward to the hustle and bustle that game day brings. I am really sad that this will be my last y...

In the town Cabul lived the daughter of an esteemed aristocrat. His daughter Zerah was one of the most beautiful women in the entire city. Her eyes were sparking, her teeth were pearly white, and on top of that she had a wonderful personality that drew everyone to her.  Zerah was always the talk of the town. She had men trying to court her from cities both near and far. Even when she was in the comfort of her own home she would constantly have men come to her door in attempts to win her heart.
