Accept Criticism
Posted by Alex Hamilton on March 17, 2007
It has, to be honest, been a ghastly week.
In the middle of it all, I took quite a knock.
As dreadfully vain as it might sound, I don’t often take knocks professionally.
I am, after all, damn good at what I do. Normally.
However, this week, I wasn’t.
I could blog with zest about all the reasons why I wasn’t a high performer this week but as I read moments ago in the introduction to Aldous Huxleys ‘Brave New World’,
‘you don’t get clean by rolling in muck’.
So I need to address where I am and what I am going to do about it.
I am going to be my own worst critic.
I am not going to shift the blame (as tempting as it most certainly is!)
I am going to accept responsibility.
I am going to find out what I am capable of as I step forward again.
And all of a sudden, I feel empowered!
