Feedback Thoughts

The two articles I read were "Seven Ways to Crush Self-Doubt" and "A Fixed Mindset Could Be Holding You Back". I chose these two articles because I struggle with self doubt and I also think that, most of the time, I have a fixed mindset. Growing up and attending a school with a fixed mindset approach made me dislike feedback and try to avoid it. Feedback meant I was doing something wrong, and while it is okay to do things wrong, I was taught that that meant failure instead of learning. Throughout the years I have tried to listen more to the feedback I get and I have found that as long as the feedback I am receiving is coming from a place of compassion, rather than anger, I thrive.

While reading "Seven Ways to Crush Self-Doubt" I was very surprised at how much I related to the article. I hope to try and follow these tips in order to become less doubtful, and to become more okay with not being perfect. My hope is that with the help of this course, I will be able to accept feedback more willingly and also be more willing to improve myself by trying new things.

In March of 2020 my plans, as well as everyone else's, took a turn. The dreaded COVID took away both of the days I had worked so hard for. Although both of my graduations were taken away from me, I still finished the year and received my degree in Biology Pre-Med, I then went on to attended OU. Being that this year was my first year of college out of high school, I began as a "freshman", starting with 60 credit hours classifying me as a junior, and changing my major to Psychology Pre-Med now puts me as a sophomore. All very confusing, I know! I have always been the type of pe...
