Often when we don't receive immediate answers to questions that are important to us, we assume the worst. Sometimes, that's painful. Impatience can cost us. I've run into two circumstance of late where I rushed to a conclusion. The personal one remains completely unresolved as yet, but I have the feeling it will turn out well in the end. Perhaps, the one I required the answer of didn't realize how anxious I was to hear. Perhaps, they just weren't sure how to answer.
As to the second, I wish I could make people understand that because a criticizm is made about a part of their work that it does not negate the value of the total project. It simply means more work is required on that specific piece to give a better overall look to the total presentation.
