On this week’s mini episode I talk about how to deal with negative feedback. It may seem obvious, but not everyone out there is a “hater”. You have to remember that other people have different perspectives than you do, and may be more critical about certain things than others. Check out the YouTube video above or listen to the podcast on iTunes.
I hope you are all enjoying these mini episodes that I am publishing to YouTube. Please let me know what you think in the comments or shoot me an email. 🙂

welcome everybody to the dreamers
podcast I’m the host Joe part oh this is
00:00:08,220 –> 00:00:15,89
my co-host David grace right here
snapping away at her lips because she’s
00:00:15,89 –> 00:00:21,000
teething so this week on the dreamers
podcast i want to talk about listening
00:00:21,000 –> 00:00:27,119
to criticism and and actually talk about
an experience that I just had that
00:00:27,119 –> 00:00:30,000
actually turned out to be a really
positive experience might actually have
00:00:30,000 –> 00:00:36,360
some notes right here on this notebook
right over there because I wasn’t afraid
00:00:36,360 –> 00:00:42,329
to take on some negative criticism about
my conference that I just held here in
00:00:42,329 –> 00:00:46,920
South Jersey its mid-atlantic
podcast.com go check it out we just
00:00:46,920 –> 00:00:50,879
holding the virtual ticket for a hundred
bucks you can watch every session and
00:00:50,879 –> 00:00:53,968
you get the audio and all that but
anyway that’s not the point the point is
00:00:53,969 –> 00:01:00,420
is at there was somebody who had a less
than favorable opinion of some of the
00:01:00,420 –> 00:01:05,220
things that we did at the conference and
you know what a lot of times people
00:01:05,220 –> 00:01:07,890
00:01:07,890 –> 00:01:11,850
I to any kind of criticism they you know
I were so many people saying oh my god I
00:01:11,850 –> 00:01:13,470
00:01:13,470 –> 00:01:15,720
we had such a great time at your
conference I can’t wait to come back
00:01:15,720 –> 00:01:18,60
next year i already bought tickets for
00:01:18,60 –> 00:01:22,770
let’s do this it’s gonna be awesome and
all of that but sometimes people that
00:01:22,770 –> 00:01:28,289
that didn’t get everything and what we
need to understand we’re working uh you
00:01:28,290 –> 00:01:32,880
know serving other people or offering a
product or something like that what we
00:01:32,880 –> 00:01:39,179
need to do is we need to be able to
listen to the people who have something
00:01:39,180 –> 00:01:43,79
to say and if you’re fortunate enough
for them to actually want to come and
00:01:43,79 –> 00:01:47,39
say something to you about it and you
know whether it’s in person or or at
00:01:47,40 –> 00:01:49,649
least in an email or survey or something
00:01:49,649 –> 00:01:53,369
there’s so much that you can learn right
so you won’t learn anything if you just
00:01:53,369 –> 00:01:56,820
take all the great the great stuff with
yall wonderful like here let me just Pat
00:01:56,820 –> 00:02:01,889
myself on the back a little pat you on
the back to the Burt no I guess not
00:02:01,890 –> 00:02:07,49
ok so I and I had ended up having this
really awesome conversation learning so
00:02:07,49 –> 00:02:11,910
many things from a perspective that was
radically different than every other
00:02:11,910 –> 00:02:13,190
00:02:13,190 –> 00:02:18,320
I had talked to about the conference so
I i just want to really put out and
00:02:18,320 –> 00:02:24,560
emphasize that if you are willing to
listen and if you’re willing to you know
00:02:24,560 –> 00:02:29,900
reach out to people that give you that
feedback you can learn and when you
00:02:29,900 –> 00:02:30,560
00:02:30,560 –> 00:02:34,610
everybody wins and that’s really all I
wanted to be able to do so that’s why I
00:02:34,610 –> 00:02:39,80
when I put my arm survey out i was
asking for people to leave their names
00:02:39,80 –> 00:02:43,250
so that i could contact them so i can
reach out to them to make it better so
00:02:43,250 –> 00:02:46,880
that next year could be better Ava for
you because you’ll be running around
00:02:46,880 –> 00:02:51,290
next year at the conference bugging
everybody while they’re trying to do
00:02:51,290 –> 00:02:56,299
things well maybe what we’ll see maybe
maybe only be there for lunch time or
00:02:56,300 –> 00:02:57,920
00:02:57,920 –> 00:03:01,130
yeah just lunchtime well she’s already
00:03:01,640 –> 00:03:06,739
ok so I this yeah listen to to your
00:03:07,250 –> 00:03:10,790
listen to the people that are willing to
give you negative feedback because you
00:03:10,790 –> 00:03:14,209
know a lot of times we want our egos to
get in the way or you guys can get in
00:03:14,210 –> 00:03:15,830
00:03:15,830 –> 00:03:21,260
we don’t want that to happen and it
doesn’t have to happen that way and I
00:03:21,260 –> 00:03:23,899
