"Why is it that when we get really positive feedback in a performance review we still focus on the tiny amount of constructive feedback given? Or when we submit a proposal and a few changes are requested, we focus on what went wrong, not what went right? Or why is it when your kids come home from school and proudly tell you they achieved 18 out of 20 in their spelling bee, you automatically want to know what they got wrong?"
"Although there is a time and a place for critical thinking and constructive feedback – both of which are essential to ensure individuals, teams and organisations keep evolving and improving — too much negativity is definitely bad for us."
