We all hate being criticized; what's worse, it's unavoidable. 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.
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.
This is something you can see, and hear.
Facts are objective provable and verifiable. This refers to objective data or information that is verifiable and not influenced by personal feelings or opinions.
Just concentrate on the facts more than anything else.
Once we observe a fact, our mind uses our own life history, previous experiences and personality to interpret it.
This involves the subjective analysis and the emotional response to the facts.
The interpretation varies from person to person (influenced by personal experiences, biases, and personality etc.). Remember, try not to get too bogged down in this part of the evaluation.
Interpretation, as we have already mentioned, leads to emotional reactions.
Our emotions are always driving us towards a certain goal.
By focusing on facts, we can separate objective reality from subjective interpretation, leading to more rational and effective responses - resolving the fact of the matter.
