GiVinG FeedBaCK to LoVeD ONeS/ people

Method and wisdom in giving feedback or criticism
-          Attitude, intention, tone, timing
-          First condition: Deep trust , the person has to trust me very much
-          How to build trust: fully elaborated in the video.


Giving feedback/advice between
  1. parents and children (grown up)
  2. siblings (brothers/sisters/ cousins)
  3. friends
  4. colleagues
  5. in-laws
  6. bosses ( me and leaders/management/etc)
  7. partners (personal partners/ business partners)
  8. spouses (husband, wife) / boyfriend/girlfriend
Intention: A heart to help others to be better, a sincere heart  
Attitude: Sincere and patience, not blaming others
Timing:
1.       when it is a one-to-one interaction and not in the public or in front of a lot of people ( it may be very embarassing and shameful for others)
2.       Only when you feel that she/he is able to accept it
3.       when the person is happy
Tone: Use a warm and nice tone with a friendly/respectful/nice facial expression

Please watch this video to get the full elaborated teachings and many real-life incident on how people give effective feedback.
Every minute and second in this video is very important!

*      It is important to know and apply the most effective way to give feedback. With the wrong method, it will cause really bad consequences such as spoiling relationship/ conflict/ ‘cold war’/resentment/ etc. 
*      It is important to have a big heart and humble attitude to accept people’s feedback/advice/criticism ( some advice is wrong and we do not take those advice/feedback to heart)

《弟子规》-入则销

親有過     諫使更     怡吾色     柔吾聲
亲有过  谏使更  怡吾色  柔吾声
When my parents do wrong, I will urge them to change. I will do it with a kind facial expression and a warm gentle voice.
父母有過失,要力勸他們更改。勸他們的時候,我們的表情要委婉,聲音要柔和。

諫不入     悅復諫     號泣隨     撻無怨
If they do not accept my advice, I will wait until they are in a happier mood before I attempt to dissuade them again, followed by crying, if necessary, to make them understand. If they end up whipping me, I will not hold grudge against them.
如父母不接受我們的勸告,我們可以等父母心情好一點的時候,再次的勸他們。如果父母還是不肯接受,我們可以接著用哭泣的方式使父母覺悟。即使因此被父母鞭打,我們心裡也絕不會起怨恨的心。
