If negative feedback is part of the package, so how to embrace it in a healthy way?

Another Ask Your Mentor Anything Live here with Virginia Katsimpiri FT. Patrícia Cardoso Ferreira
✅ Topic of this week: “Negative Feedback: how to embrace it in a healthy way”
We will be covering:
If negative feedback is part of the package, so how to embrace it in a healthy way?
Whether or not you agree with it, negative feedback is unavoidable and it is what it is.
No matter how self-confident you are, it may be hard to take the emotion out of it and look at it as a simple case of growth.
We will talk about some action steps to prevent it to heart, as well as some positive ways to respond to negativity when it comes your way.
Let’s try to find a middle ground and know how do you deal with negativity on an emotional level?
Let’s try to recognize when it makes us mentally and physically sick?
Let’s look at it as a gift and ignore the packaging.
📆So, mark your calendar for this Friday

✅ Topic of this week: “The importance of Code of Ethics & CPD for translators”
Are you ready for our upcoming Live this Friday, March 12, at 4pm CET? ☕️
Another Ask Your Mentor Anything Live with Virginia Katsimpiri FT. Sónia Patrícia Tavares
✅ Topic of this week: “The importance of Code of Ethics & CPD for translators”
We will be covering:
• What an ISO Standard is and how and who can suggest a new standard.
• Do they apply to every country?
• Who represents ISO in each country?
Moreover, since only agencies apply for ISO Standards, freelancers don’t pay much attention to them. However, if you would like to work with these agencies you need to make sure that you meet their standards and requirements. For example, some translators refuse to sign NDAs but for certified agencies NDAs are usually part of the requirements. If a translator refuses to provide an NDA, this agency will not be able to work with this translator.

My new program starts next week!
The Ultimate LinkedIn Prospecting System 3-month business mentoring program by Virginia Katsimpiri.
We start March 18th!
The Ultimate LinkedIn Prospecting System (ULPS) is the only program you need to stop overthinking and fast track your translation business success!
There is no more effective way to grow your business than by getting a steady flow of high-quality leads and clients, month after month, in under 30 minutes a day.
The ULPS is not a course. It’s a 12-week implementation and accountability group coaching program where you get clear steps to focus on every week. So you can make a continuous progress.
You can still join us here: https://vmentoring.lpages.co/original-sales-page-linkedin-program/
And you walk away with a complete client-acquisition strategy tailored to your business’ needs, a list of potential clients interested in your services, tools to use even after the program, and you’ll even have the chance to make sales like many of our previous participants did!
Even if you have already an established business, the ULPS is invaluable to get you to the next level, get you more clients through LinkedIn and help you to automate processes so as to be able to contact 100 potential clients a day.
So instead of wasting more time overthinking and trying to decide your next steps… You’ll be able to see results during the ULPS… No matter what your starting point. -
