Some use condescending criticism instead of true constructive criticism.   Today's featured award-winning author is community activist and small group facilitator, Nelson Brown. Nelson and I talk about his upcoming book projects, dealing with negative feedback and more!   Key Takeaways: Network as much as you possibly can with others.    Appreciate your small accomplishments.   Poetry can take you into another universe.   Some use condescending criticism instead of true constructive criticism.   When you are going through depressing times and don’t accept professional help, you are doing yourself and your loved ones a disservice.   Not everyone will understand your vision.   There is nothing wrong with going to therapy to talk about your issues.   Successful people don’t have time for criticizing others and spreading negativity.   Nelson's Book: https://www.amazon.com/Beauty-Us-Our-Reality-1/dp/1718751907    The opening track is titled, "Improve Yourself More" by Rukunetsu aka Project R.
