Don't feel attached to your code
Don't feel attached to your code
Don’t take it personal when someone criticizes your work. It’s not personal(in most cases) and it’s not that deep.
I have spent so much time on a feature or a problem, and then in 5 minutes it is ripped apart by someone who understands and knows so much more than me. If you are attached you get too emotional and can’t see the bigger picture. I am always bummed out when I need to delete my progress from the past week, but that is how we learn.
Conclusion
Take the critisism and improve. Let’s continue working and do the job right.
I think this applies to everything no matter if it is just code or something else work related.
