✎ Getting feedback can be tough, but it’s absolutely necessary for growth. In this episode, Mel Robbins shares a powerful story about a moment of unexpected feedback after a speech in Dallas. A well-dressed man approached her and pointed out that she repeatedly called her own "5 Second Rule" concept "stupid" during her talk. At first, it stung, but Mel quickly realized he was right—she had developed a habit of using that language to preempt skepticism, but it was actually weakening her message. By making a small tweak in her approach, she could communicate her idea more effectively and impact more people. The lesson? Feedback, even when it’s uncomfortable, is an opportunity for improvement.

Evan Carmichael dives deeper into why feedback is so hard to take and why most people struggle with it emotionally rather than logically. If you only accept feedback when it’s sugarcoated, you’ll grow painfully slow—if at all. He challenges you to rethink your reaction to criticism and not just dismiss "haters" outright. Instead of getting defensive, look for the 1% of truth that might help you improve. Successful entrepreneurs don’t just ignore negativity; they use it to their advantage. Whether it’s feedback from customers, employees, or even strangers, learning to separate useful insight from noise is a game-changer.

To level up in business and life, you need to stretch your comfort zone and raise your standards. If negative feedback or criticism shakes you to your core, how will you handle bigger challenges? Evan reminds you that everything you face is just a warm-up for something greater. The key is to build resilience and surround yourself with people who embrace feedback without crumbling under pressure. If you can learn to process feedback effectively—both the good and the bad—you’ll set yourself apart and unlock your full potential. Believe Nation, it’s time to start listening, learning, and growing!
