Valuing honest feedback, even if critical, is more beneficial for creative work than receiving only praise.

“I value more the person who is just going to praise me because they think that's what I want to hear and because they they find it too awkward to deliver some bad news because they they know I've spent a lot of time right in this thing or do I want to hear from the person who is actually finding flaws in this thing I've written and well now because I'm going to them early well now it now has a chance to spare me the public embarrassment of broadcasting these flaws to all humanity clearly I value that the other reader more”
