If you create something, you should be comfortable with getting them critiqued. In fact, if you don’t have that, maybe, just maybe no one saw it and that isn’t what you want, right?

PROMPT: Do you have critics?

When we put our effort into working on a project, we almost always expect accolades. However, there are times were things just don’t go the way we want and all we get are not-so-nice critiques. We need to pay attention to them because we might learn how to make our work better.

PROMPT: What was the last critique you were given? How useful was it?

The South Park guys made an amazing film “Team America World Police” and there’s a scene where a character talks about people as dicks, pussies, and assholes. Go check it out on YouTube. Well, don’t be an asshole. Don’t be someone that people just can’t stand. Don’t be the person that people don’t want to have anything to do with. Remember, the world is super tiny and it’s a lot easier to do good than to be an asshole.

PROMPT: How do you handle assholes?

From time to time, do yourself a favour and google yourself. The things you find out might even be a shock to you but even if they are not, it is important to check out what is out there about you.

PROMPT: What did you find out when you googled yourself?

We should be like kids that ask “why” and “why” and “why” over and over. That is one of the best ways to learn and to grow. When you are less certain, you tend to ask a lot more questions. There’s nothing wrong with asking questions. It just might be you are asking the wrong person but there’s nothing wrong in asking questions.

PROMPT: What was the last question you asked? Did you get a satisfying answer?
