Critique
I saw a post on social media a while back asking if you preferred no feedback or constrictive criticism as feedback.
Plenty of my day jobs have involved feedback and assessing my work my throughout my entire life; so constructive criticism is fine with me.
However, I don’t think most people know how to give valuable feedback. And there’s a level of needing to know the persons goal(s) for it to be both constructive and useful.
For example, I once received unsolicited advice on my business that I wasn’t posting regularly enough on social media and that I had to schedule more post so that I could fake being consistent.
That was not my goal, and faking an abled “standard” for appearances sake is literally everything that I’m against.
However, technically that was constructive feedback. But it was irrelevant constructive feedback – it didn’t take into account my goals and intentions.
