If it is about my personal looks then I will find ways to improve my looks. Say for example someone criticized me for wearing clothes that do not fit me, I'll learn to wear clothes that make me look good. If people criticize how I talk then it is a good thing they are telling me what is not good in me. But if they criticize how I live my life then I would tell them, it is my business and they are not suppose to mind me. Unless I am doing something to hurt and ruin other people, but it I am not then they should not mind my life.
What do you think? Sometimes people know how to criticize others but they are not looking at themselves right??????

i analyze the situation carefully and trying not to be exagerated.
sometimes, i also trying to ignore those criticisms, especially if i'm not on the mood.
i'll just listen and say ''ok!''.
i put in to my mind that its their impression to what i am doing, so it's ok to be criticize sometimes.

Avoid them and try to stay away from them. To me it's not for them to make judgement on who or what we are. Whenever anyone critism you about anything, dont let it get you down. Say to yourself, I'm better than them. In some cases, accept their critism, analize it and if useful use them to motivate you for further improvement. Good luck

Absolutely, Yes! They criticize people around them but can't see themselves. Criticism for me just fine, at first it is disgusting but it can help you improve what is wrong in you. I took criticism as a challenge and prove to them that they're wrong. Hope you do.

Depends on the intention of their criticism. If their intention in giving you criticism is to correct you actions or to show that you can do better than that then I will take it as a challenge and try to do better next time. There are hypocrite people that criticize others just for the sake of hurting their feeling and i hate those kind of people.

Criticism - good or bad, is the other person's view, if its unreasonable I reason myself saying maybe he/she was in a bad mood, when I know the person will always say bad about me I will just ignore, if its coming from friends I know its for my well being and I will take it as advice to improve myself, happy mylotting

It depends. If the criticism is constructive and coming from my friend or loved one, then I look/ask for ways to improve. But if someone does it just to pull me down or, make me feel a lesser person, I pretend not being affected by it. But inside I does disturb me. Still I try to figure out if there is any truth in it. If it still bothers me then I share it with my mom who is my soothing anchor.

i have heard their word infront of me criticizing my life sometimes i ignore them especially when it comes from my mother in law because i knot that she do this for me in order to change the bad side that she have seen on my, i accept every fault that i made.
But when it is out side my family, i dont like criticizing me, of who i am and what i am for they have no rights to say it infront of me, if they dont want to get hurt it will be good if they will keep their mouth shut.

Surely, I won't shout back at the person who has critizised my religion, but willl gently make him understand the real truth as Jesus has done while He lived in this world! as there is a saying in the bible that welcome and answer those people who don't know christ with pateince as i've did!-Jesus
Even after telling the truth if the critizisms continue, then we'll bear for our Lord Christ instead of firing back on them as Jesus has also told if anyone in this world critizises you, it is me who he has critizised first! so if we suffer for a righteous thing then the Heavenly kingdom will be gifted to us by the Lord!-Bible..

how right you are! i too am ok with criticism, so long as it's done constructively...in fact, i even appreciate that a lot, that way i am always aware of ways to improve myself. but i get annoyed by people who have nothing better to do than find to fault in others when they themselves are not perfect at all.
