- It is easy to get angry with those who criticize you.
- But it is better to listen and to consider what they have to say.
- If the criticism is completely misdirected and unfounded, then you can simply let it go.
- Yet often it can be valuable and productive to objectively consider what your critics are thinking.
- The worst response to criticism is to become angry, insulted and defensive.
- For by doing so, you actually give more power and credibility to that criticism.
- Instead, listen carefully and appreciatively to what your critics have to say.
- Even if the criticism is decidedly negative, somewhere there are positive insights that you can gain from it.
- Don't let your ego prevent you from learning something valuable.
- Being receptive to criticism strengthens your confidence and can improve your competence.
- Choose to know and understand what others think of you.
- Instead of getting angry and defensive over the words of others, choose to listen, consider and grow stronger because of them.
