Feedback is the art of thinking about human qualities and mistakes. It is also the ability to reflect on "present", feelings and thoughts. This also includes reflecting on the thoughts, feelings and feelings of others. Feedback can be a helpful way to make positive changes in your life as you gauge and evaluate decisions you have made in the past. This may take you to forget about some people or to give up thinking about something. Learning to reflect on your own life and the experiences of yourself and the lives of others can help you become an adult and make wise choices for shaping your future.

Steps

Part 1 of 3: Learn to respond

1. 

   Find a time to respond. If you have a hard time balancing work with your personal life, then you don't have time to respond. However, the feedback can take place anywhere and anytime. If you can't take a longer time to meditate, your mental health professional recommends that you use time in between daily tasks to respond. It is important to identify "a short amount of time" that would be wasted every day if not in use and spend that time responding, no matter how short the time is.
   • Reflect in bed or just when you wake up and have just turned off your alarm clock, or just before bed while you are relaxing at night. It's probably invaluable time to prepare yourself for the next day (in the morning), or to handle the events of the day (in the evening).
   • Meditate while showering. It's the perfect time to respond, as it might be one of the few opportunities to truly be alone during the day. For many people, taking a shower can ease emotions, making it easier to meditate on unpleasant or frustrating events and memories.
   • Make use of the time you travel. If you drive to work and are in a traffic jam, take a few minutes to turn off the radio and think about whatever bother you or worries you. If you take public transport, stop reading or remove your headphones for a few minutes and let yourself reflect on today or about your workday while on the way home.

2. 

   
   
   Keep silent. This may seem easier said than done, but one of the most important factors taking time to give feedback is the need for silence and possibly alone. Allow yourself to relax, sit, and breathe mindfully, and try to stop distractions like turning off the TV or eliminating noisy sounds. Whatever your surroundings, allow yourself time to be quiet and alone, even if you focus fully on your thoughts and others around you.
   • Many studies show that taking time to meditate can have a positive effect on health and energy, leading to increased productivity at work.

3. 

   
   
   Reflect on yourself and your experiences. In a moment of silence, your thoughts may begin to rush with worry about what you need to do or that you should have done differently. These thoughts are not necessarily negative because they can be an important part of your reflection at the beginning or end of the day. However, if you are trying to reflect on your own life, then you may need to shape your thinking, by trying to ask yourself the following questions:
   • Who are you and what kind of person are you?
   • What have you learned about yourself from the things you experience each day?
   • Have you challenged yourself to thrive by questioning your thoughts, beliefs and perceptions about your own life?

Part 2 of 3: Using feedback to improve life

1. 

   
   
   Evaluate your core values. Core values ​​are values ​​and beliefs that ultimately shape every aspect of your life. Reflecting on your core values ​​can make you feel better about yourself, and what you are striving for in your full life. The easiest way to estimate and evaluate your core values ​​is to ponder the question: "What is your most important trait / personality?" This can help you deal with self-esteem or low self-esteem issues and understand the basics that motivate you to strive.
   • If you are not sure the value core Think about how someone who knows you well (like your children, parents, or lover) will describe you in just a few words. Will they say you are generous or selfless or honest? In this example, generosity, shared nature, and honesty might be among your core values.
   • Evaluate whether you've kept your core values ​​in a tough time. Staying in touch with your core values ​​means staying true to who you are and what you value.

2. 

   Analyze your goals. Some people may not think feedback when thinking about goals, but many studies show that feedback is an important element in any goal-oriented pursuit. It's easy for a person to stay busy with routine and routines without ever taking the time to gauge the effort they are putting into achieving their goals. But without judgment and judgment, many people will go astray or give up on pursuing their goals.
   • Feedback is an essential part of goal pursuit because many people become motivated when they realize they are not getting what they want. Rather than letting that perception make you feel lethargic, it can be helpful to change the way you approach failure. Instead of feeling helpless, push yourself to show that you can achieve your goals.
   • If you are having trouble, reconsider your goals. Research shows that a good goal follows SMART criteria: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Results-focused, and Time-bound. deadline). Make sure that every goal plan you develop includes a positive section for feedback and self-assessment.

3. 

   Change the way you think. The ability to respond can be invaluable in changing the way a person thinks and responds to situations. Many people fall into "autopilot", which is how we deal with people, places, and situations every day. However, without regular reflection and judgment on how we respond to external stimuli, we will easily get caught up in this kind of ineffective or even harmful behavior. Feedback can help you proactively evaluate the situation and re-evaluate to feel more positive and in control.
   • Other stressful or troubling situations are often the most difficult thing for you to feel positive about. However, many difficult situations will ultimately benefit us.
   • Instead of feeling anxious or upset about an uncontrollable situation - such as having to go through a dental procedure - reshape your perception of the situation to reflect on the positive changes that result from too submit that. In this example, the dental procedure would be a temporary discomfort, and the result will be a better smile, teeth that are painless, and in good health.

Part 3 of 3: Reflecting on the world around you

1. 

   Analyze your experience. You will have so many experiences every day of your life, which makes it difficult to evaluate the meaning of every experience. However, if you take the time to think every day about an experience right after it happened, it will become easier to handle the event and your responses to it.
   • Think about your response to the experience. How did you feel about having that experience? Does it match what you predicted about the experience? Why or why not?
   • Have you learned anything from the experience? Have you learned any lessons from your experience that will help you understand yourself, others or the world better?
   • Does the experience affect the way you think or feel? Why and how?
   • What can you learn about yourself from the experience and how you responded to it?

2. 

   Evaluate your relationships with others. Some people find it difficult to ask why they are friends with someone or what the friendship / relationship means. However, it is sometimes necessary to reflect on your relationships with others. In fact, some studies have suggested that meditating on past relationships can be even helpful by helping you get through the difficulties of losing a relationship and determining what. was unsettled.
   • Track how people in your life influence your emotions. They may be the people present in your life, or the people you have cut off contact with for some reason. Write these observations in your daily journal or personal journal to help process them and learn from them as you develop future relationships.
   • As you contemplate a relationship, assess whether the relationship with a friend or partner is truly healthy. For example, you might want to ask yourself if you trust your partner, are you honest, understand each other, have language and behavior that respect each other, and are both willing to compromise on issues that cause each other to argue or not.

3. 

   Use feedback to avoid arguments. Whether you are spending time with your lover, friends, or a family member, there is a risk that you will have some time arguing with them on a topic. Argument often occurs because two or more people allow their emotions to control the atmosphere of the conversation. But by stepping back and responding before you speak, you can help defuse the argument or avoid it together. If you feel the debate is in danger, take time to ask yourself the following questions:
   • How are you feeling right now and what do you need?
   • If you shared your feelings and needs, how did the other person / others react?
   • What does the person need right now, and how does that need affect their ability to understand what you need?
   • How do you use your language and actions towards the other person and the outsider observing how you communicate?
   • How do you resolve conflicts in the past that both sides have agreed upon? What did each of them say and do to help alleviate conflict and make everyone feel happy and valued?
   • What is the most ideal or agreed upon way to resolve a conflict and what should be said / done to achieve the resolution?
