I think the first draft of my keynote is the best first pass at a talk I’ve ever written, and I feel like implementing the feedback I’ve gotten from the few people who’ve already seen it has made it so much better.

Good reviews are so valuable.

Doing reviews is also incredibly valuable, IMO, which is why I always take them seriously. Looking at someone’s work and then figuring out what could be improved and how to justify why it’s an improvement teaches you so much about how to produce that kind of work.

You can apply the skills you learn from reviewing to your own work, but you can’t gain quite the same skills by critical reviews of your own work.
