How to Deal With Criticism
Steps
- Keep your self-esteem proportional.
Don't have it too high or too low for yourself. If it is too low, you
will be sensitive to criticism because it reminds you how bad you think
you are. If it is too high, you will get angry at people and be
disappointed of yourself. It may be difficult to maintain this balance.
Just keep reminding yourself that "I am what i am and i am true to
myself. I am not a perfect person but at the same time i do posses some
talent.
- Tell people to give constructive criticism to you. It doesn't hurt as much when you tell people to.
- Correct what they are criticising, or they will see you as stubborn or annoying.
- Try to improve. It may sound like a cliche but this
is what you can do. There is no point in mulling over those words. Look
beyond the 'words'. Take it in good spirit. Make an effort to eradicate
those negatives.
- Its a part of life. It is very important that you
know that you cannot escape criticism. The more success you will find
the harsher will be the criticism. Take a look at all the famous people,
there are millions who criticize them. They always take it in good
spirit and maybe that's why they are successful. No matter what you do
there will always be people who will praise as well as criticize you.
Nothing is perfect.
Tips
- Criticism means constructive advice pointing out your faults. If you
are trying to deal with insults, read the articles in the related
wikiHows.
- You should be polite with people so that they will not use harsh words all the time.
- If the criticism is faulty, ignore what has been said or contact the person who sent the criticism.
- People might think you are weird if you tell people to criticize you.
- Don't flat out tell the person they are wrong and should "stop
flaming you", this doesn't make a difference whether they are right or
not.
