how do you handle criticism?

So your implying on how others perceive you? Anyway, whenever taking criticisms, I always think that its their perception as always and they are just stating their opinions. There are times that I might agree with what they find unsatisfactory but, I won't take everything that they dish out and recontruct the item being objectified into another alternate idea which literally changes the whole concept and leaves everything that I have contributed on its conception.

I guess it's important that you should know more about yourself first. What are your strengths and weaknesses? What you like and don't like? In that way, you can define if criticisms are true (whether bad or good) or simply just to irritate you... :D Sometimes people give criticisms depending on their personal reasons. Others criticize constructively because they wanted you to learn, while some criticize because of their personal insecurities towards you. People, (including me) prefer to give honest, frank and straightforward criticisms because without the hurt, he/she wouldn't realize it and he won't have the courage to change his negatives.. We must just always remember that criticisms are there to constantly remind us of our imperfections and mistakes. And it doesn't define our imperfections as a person, but criticisms are mostly based from what we do. And if someone criticizes you as you, i mean, YOU as a person, there's no reason to be disappointed about it. You must learn to love yourself first so you would care less about these remarks. :D

Bad criticisms usually put me down but it also make me look deeper into myself and ponder: Is it true? Or was it not? It's not a good feeling to be criticized negatively but it do helps us get stronger and realize the flaws which we fail to see ourselves. I think it should be taken positively, no matter how hard it is to swallow. It's an opportunity to change something for the better or prove somebody else's wrong.

This depends on the situation and the deliverer of the critique. If it is constructive aimed to help me in some fashion without being stated in a tone less than friendly, I can accept it once I have processed it. If the intent is to humiliate, abuse, discriminate or truly hurt me because of some other hidden agenda, then I shall not accept and probably rebel. I give criticism much creedence if the person criticizing is clueless, more room to work on changing their perspective . . .

well this is how i handle it: I dont care and STFU.........You dont like me since i aint too good for you..fine. Get in line cause you are just one out of the millions of other morons who hate me"Thats how simple it is.............Saves me time and effort and that applies to EVYERONE i know hahahahaha

criticism, in my point of view, is negative. to make it positive, i call it coaching and feedback o mentoring. it should come from someone who ares about you and your output. i dont listen much on criticism, i let it pass through. i take coaching and mentoring by heart.

I have a hard time handling criticism also. I always have . I guess because I was picked on a lot for having a weight problem. At the same time no one is perfect and like you side you can't plese everybody.

Take the criticism positively. Make an evaluation of yourself if the criticism is true. But be open minded. Accept it...Then make a modification or changes about it. Perhaps, the next time you bumped on each other, he/she may tell you a compliment

Reasonable criticisms will motivate me to improve myself. Negative criticism will be handled as left ear in, right ear out.

Well i do handle Critism positively.. and i am not letting myself to minggle with those things and be affected by it. I dont really actually care what people says about me, as long as i am not doing anything wrong and i am not hurting people, i know that im on a right track! Just stay good as u are and dont be affected by whatever they say about u. Have a nice day ahead from Francis.

It has been told that no one succeeds in life without being open to criticism. I want to make a distinction between constructive criticism and purely barb. Though purely barb is nothing constructive but mostly an unpleasant attack on you it deserves nothing but avoidance. On the other hand constructuve criticism is usually handed over by your friends to make you a better person. Like if somebody says, " You don't look your best today" will mean that you always look your best but something must be wrong today and I want to know about it and maybe help. I though have hangups with any type of criticism, I somehow treat them as an attack on my senses and seldom listen. Could it be because am a Leo and too proud of myself? Hahaha. Add me plz and rank as well.

I think it is very important to learn to take criticism well. If it is a bad criticism... then we shouldn't get angry but just accept it. I can't do that yet though.

Criticism can be of three kinds: 1. That which is justified and fair. 2. That which may be justified but is delivered in a hostile manner. 3. The unjustified or brutal put-down. Most people react badly to all three types of criticism. We tend to take critical remarks as a direct attack on our total worth. People in the arts and professions, if they good at what they do, use constructive criticism to their advantage. But most of us go to great lengths to avoid getting criticized. The first step in learning to handle criticism: Make sure you are really being criticized. Most of the time, if you bother to examine the situation, no criticism was really intended. Also, do not invite criticism by such asking insincere questions such as – Did you really like it? Or How did I do? If you can't take a frank and honest answer to such questions you are better off not asking them. If a criticism is justified, see it in its proper perspective. If a criticism is unjustified, practice control. Stay cool. Do not give the person who has unfairly criticized you the satisfaction of knowing he has scored. It is always a good idea to consider the source. Criticism always hurts. But it should not hurt coming from the ignorant, the rude, the uninformed. It is not a good idea to brood on criticism. Try to dispose it quickly by judging it as either deserved or unjustified. If it is deserved, make a resolution to correct the fault and then forget it. Do not let criticism poison a whole day. n how i manage criticism is depend on the situation where i can apply those words above. And, hearing in mind how it hurts, you should not criticize others in return, remember Do not do unto others what you do not want to do unto you.

criticsm?/it depends lyk wat type. alot of bthe tym i think wen people criticise other people it is to make them selves feel better or when they are jelous of u. So if i get criticised itz not a big deal...i jus think they are jelous thats all and feel better about myslef.

It really doesn't bother me if I'm being criticised because of what I do or how I look. I consider myself to be a positive person with a positive outlook on life. I keep my head up and I smile a lot. The ones who express negativity by criticism can find no room in my life. I can only hope that my positive demeaner shines well enough so they can learn from it.

Yes criticizism is part of our lives. We just have to face it in one way or the other. The truth is there is nothing good you will do in this world that will not attract criticizism. Therefore whenever am criticized, I just take it without discouragement and move on with life as usual. Thanks and have a nice day.

Good for you that had learned to counter the way criticisms affect you. About me, If I am being criticised, I'm balancing whether if it is something to be ignore or something that really should be an improvement for myself.

the only way to avoid criticism is to ignore it and try to know their reason why they criticize you,and once you know the reason then its time for you to improve on something that they criticize you...always have an open mind on everything and you will do fine.people wont criticize you if they dont see anything wrong....

i remain quite and listen to one who criticises me
