BRX Pro Tip: Don’t Listen to Feedback from These People
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] And we are back with Business RadioX Pro Tips. Lee Kantor and Stone Payton here with you. Lee, there’s all kinds of reasons to take an action, get the data, incorporate it into your plan, make your adjustments. And in the same breath, there’s just some people that we should not listen to their feedback. Yeah?
Lee Kantor: [00:00:20] Yeah, I agree. Everybody’s got an opinion about everything, and it’s important to really discern which opinions matter, and which are the opinions you should really take action around. For me, personally, if that person is not in the game battling, if they’re not kind of doing what you do, if they’re not in there kind of learning the hard lessons that life teaches you, I’m really not interested in their feedback. Their feedback is not that meaningful to me.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:53] I want constructive feedback from people who are putting themselves out there, not just these people who are in an ivory tower hypothesizing on how things should be in some perfect world. You know I’m a big believer in real data. And to me, real data comes from doing real work. It doesn’t come from whiteboarding out what could be or what should be. The real world is imperfect and people just act a little irrationally at times, and you’ve got to factor that in. And you can’t factor that in on a whiteboard, you’ve got to factor that in in real life with real experience, so you can get real knowledge, and then you can take real action.
