Feedback from others is only feedback. It is not the truth nor the next step that you have to take. It is not the truth until you have verified the fact objectively. It is not the next step until you have decided so.
Your feedback-givers like all mortals have preconception, assumptions and subconscious that may “color” their feedback to you. Step up your objectivity to filter the feedback while keeping an open mind for good advice and suggestions.
