Speaking of resilience, yesterday I received feedback on a recent project I completed. Overall it was great feedback with a few nudges on areas I could improve in. I used to get down and worry about the feedback and not living up to expectations I had for myself. Now I embrace the feedback and know that this is the secret sauce for becoming more aware of my skills and to be able to address the areas I need to in order to grow as a designer. The key part for me is to be resilient and use the feedback to learn from instead of feeling down because of it.
Thank you, Rizwan, for a fun experience writing about my take on resilience!
And to answer my question:
Every day I try to be more patient with myself. I'm no master at this yet, but eventually, I might be.
