What does it mean when you realize you may have been making a mistake or taken criticism in a negative or defensive way on a project, as discussed in the episode 104: How to Invite Criticism without Hating Yourself | Feedback Friday and the clip Managing Emotional Reactions? I'm frustrated with how I acted—responsive and thankful but also annoyed—after Kaitlyn suggested I do something differently. I have a weird relationship with one manager at work. I'm going to change how I've been acting. I'm just an intern, but it's not obvious; everyone else loves me, and I love them. It's just this one person, and I need to change my attitude. She rarely gives me the space to explain and often asserts herself in the middle of presentations without letting me continue. It's very different from everyone else there. While it's useful in some ways, it's also frustrating. I'm proud that I recognize I need to adjust to her behavior. Will this change help her loosen her resistance too? But now, I'm feeling like I've had a negative impression on everyone and done a horrible job this summer. I know I haven't; I'm getting a return offer. But what is this feeling?
