The next time this occurs, take time to consider why you became so angry in relation to what is truly behind the commentary. Are you upset due to the tone of voice or the choice of words used? Was a sore spot hit but you don’t know what to do about it? Is a costly fix required? In all honesty, what are ALL the reasons for being so upset? List these to begin analyzing one by one.
Most often the very commentary that makes you angry is precisely what you need to hear in order to go about improving your business development. Once the examination takes place, you are more inclined to be in control. Now you are able to replace emotion with analytics to determine your next best step.
The same applies to poor job reviews in terms of career growth. Get past the emotional aspect to apply analytics in determining your next best step.
Very often, after the fact, you almost feel as if you should thank the person for inadvertently guiding you to the better path. Be of the mindset to listen to all commentary. It strengthens your personal brand as well as your resolve to attain your goals.
Looking back, it will almost seem as if it were a Smooth Sale!
