Have you ever felt like your Ego is getting in the way of being productive?
These last few days I've been feeling I might be overly resistant to criticism with regards to some new stuff I've been developing. So as an anti-dote I'm writing this blog post to remind myself why that might be.
In a nutshell, I think I tend to fall in love with my creations and let it bias my judgement.
Remember, the more effort you put into something the more attachment you feel towards it. It's a well known cognitive effect. You need to make sure you compensate for that and don't let your ego get the better of you.
