Turn Feedback Into Actionable Growth

We made it to the last step in receiving feedback. And this one’s my favorite.

Last week, I wrote about?understanding feedback. In the final part of this series, we turn our attention to learning and growing.

What to do with positive feedback

Save the feedback

You should store any positive feedback you receive. This could mean saving a message, taking a screenshot, or adding the feedback to a brag document or growth journal.

There are a few reasons why you should do this:

1. You won’t forget it
2. You can revisit it when you need inspiration
3. You can use it as evidence of your performance and growth

Remember what you did

Did you do something positive when writing code, submitting a pull request, or planning a feature that you’d like to repeat?

Consider creating a checklist related to these actions so you can duplicate the behavior. Or create a sticky note and put it somewhere visible.

One effective way to repeat positive behaviors and actions is to remind yourself of them until they become second nature.

Consistency leads to growth
