Any tips for how to better implement feedback on drafts? My work is so heavily redlined that I struggle to consistently follow through with every comment/feedback. I am in patent prosecution, so it is a lot of detailed technical writing, but is also fairly formulaic, which is nice. Thankfully the partner I work with is extremely patient and a very good teacher, I would just like to be better at learning from his very thorough feedback.

After a filing is completed, review your initial draft and the final draft back to back. Like, read yours and then read the final. See where the major changes. Was the initial tone correct? Was your reasoning sound? Did you miss arguments or support? It can be easy to get lost in the details with redlines and comments, but the final review will help you catch the big issues, which in turn will help you understand the context for the detailed changes and comments.
