utex,
We need a baseline.
Let's first assume we have done our homework and we know the rules and the mechanics. This gives us a layer of security and self-confidence. This is most important.

Then we realize that we get yelled at for two reasons:
  • 1. We made a bad call
  • 2. The complainers are ignorant.

    For 1.> We go back study harder and work harder and take the abuse, then vow we will not make the same mistake.
    For 2.> We realize that we cannot deal with ignorance and dismiss it... totally.

    Good luck.

    mick
