This is Rohit, your usual 9to5 corporate guy working in tech. Not all feedback feels fair. But reacting fast usually makes it worse. Here’s what I do instead. 1. I don’t respond immediately I listen fully. I take notes. I let the moment pass. 2. I separate signal from noise Some feedback is about my work. Some is about preferences. I focus only on what helps me improve. 3. I ask for examples Not to challenge. To understand what triggered the feedback. 4. I decide what to act on I don’t apply eve
