Who can you ask for honest feedback?

Prompt: Who can you ask for honest feedback? My older brother, Miles, has a PhD in math and he is a reliable source of honest feedback regarding my academic endeavors. He helps me to recognize my limitations both as a student and a person. In  Mindset  by Dr. Carol Dweck, she discusses the importance of being open to and aware of accurate information about yourself (p. 11). My brother and I have an open line of communication through which we can give each other constructive criticism, and this improves my awareness of myself and my abilities.  Dweck, C. S. (2016).  Mindset: The new psychology of succes: How we can learn to fulfill our potential: Parenting, business, school, relationships . New York: Ballentine Books.
