What About the Negatives: There will always be negatives in anything you do.  Most negatives, especially promoted ones, are not founded on complete truth.  No matter what you are doing in your life, your job, your family, your friends, you should only address negatives to someone who has the ability to change the thing.  A good rule to adhere to, in any organization, is that any negatives go up the organization.  The reason for this is you do deserve an answer and they may have already addressed the issue or they can be addressed up an organization not down.  The best way to kill an organization is to pass negatives down.  In contrast, for best organizational growth, all positives should always go down in any and all organizations.   We do not give founded positive feedback in our society nearly as often as we should.  In other words we need to say thanks and good job more often.  The old adage "If you don't have anything nice to say, you should not say anything at all." should be, but is not, our societal norm. Or, quoting Mother Teresa "I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there."   Let’s Be Positive!
