We all hate being criticized; what's worse, it's not avoidable. Don't feel embarrassed if you have this kind of thought.
Being criticized is not fun, however, you really don't need to take all bad things in, the FIRE model can make you treat the feedback wisely.
What the FIRE Model Is
Developed by Mark Murphy, founder of Leadership IQ and author of “Truth at Work”, FIRE model helps us extract positive and constructive criticism from negative feedback, allowing us room to work on our mistakes without being weighed down by all the negativity that’s thrown at us.
Humans generally evaluate the world around us with a four-step process.
We notice some Facts, then we make Interpretations about those facts, then based on our interpretations we experience emotional Reactions, and once we experience those emotions we have some desired Ends.
So, Facts, Interpretations, Reactions and Ends formed the FIRE framework.
