Gab & Jam Episode Ep 117 Haters are Your Elevators: Negative Comments are Your Proof Video Description This is a follow-up episode in response to the trolls that where on our Instagram comments related to a free download that we were offering aspiring, fellow D.I.Y. Rock Stars, called “15 Tips for Better Band Photos” (http://bit.ly/betterbandphotos ). We have addressed part of our sentiments in “Failures Are Your Friends” ( http://bit.ly/Ep108failurevid), but this is yet another angle on receiving negative criticism. We also give you 4 tips for dealing with this. #haters #criticism #success #prejippie #bloomingprejippie #diyrockstar 4 Tips for Dealing with Fault-Finding Fans: 1. People don’t spend too much criticizing folks who aren’t doing anything. (In other words, this is your proof that you’re doing something that deserves notice.) 2. See if their criticism can help. (This is THE best revenge!) 3. Revisit your “why.” (This is so that you’re not tempted to get discouraged.) 4. Even if you are aware that you could have done better, remember our new favorite saying: “‘Done’ is the new ‘Perfect’” and get that shit published. (You can always do better with the next one, but don’t stop producing no matter what!) What do you think? Have you turned someone’s negativity into a win for you? If so, we’d love to hear your thinking. Please share it in the comments below.
