When a user points out that a feature in Planyway isn't as intuitive as we thought, I often reach out directly to understand their perspective. That conversation leads us to refine the feature, making it more user-friendly for everyone.
Try to stay calm and not take it personally. I listen to what's being said, see if there's something I can learn from it, and use it to improve. It's all part of growing and getting better!
Ah, negative feedback—the "fun" part of growth! 😅 Honestly, I used to take it pretty hard, but I’ve learned to see it as a reality check that’s super valuable (even if it stings at first!). Now, I try to break it down and find any gems of truth that could actually help me improve. If it’s constructive, it’s like a roadmap for getting better.
But if it’s just plain harsh, I try to remind myself not to take it personally and focus on the big picture. At the end of the day, feedback—good or bad—is all part of the journey!
I say "thank you" before leaving the room, finding a pillow to scream a bunch of insults into and then I go back to doing the same thing until we get into an actual physical fight.
The winner of the street fight gets to be right.
