Feedback Thoughts

I feel like I have not received a great deal of feedback in my time as a college student. The only time that I really get much feedback from professors is when I write a paper and I just get comments that something is wrong, but often time no feedback is provided on why its wrong or how to make it right. This was especially evident in my physics class. Also there have been many times at work where I wish I would receive any feedback at all just to know where I stand. So I believe feedback should be backed with helpful solutions and specific criticisms, otherwise it won't be as beneficial. 
From this article, It is good to realize that feedback should be taken as an opportunity to make yourself better. So it is important not to take the feedback as a personal attack. The feedback can allow you to identify your strengths and weaknesses. 
This is definitely something that I struggle with on a daily basis. I have always been over critical of everything that I do, which I believe is partly why I have been able to succeed in college. However, it has also contributed to an increase in my stress levels. I will definitely take the advice of this article and stay positive, hear positive feedback and really try to understand why its positive. I have trouble believing that somethings are a positive for me, but insist that it needs to be better. This article will definitely help me to lever my stress levels by looking at the positives in negative feedback.
