Accepting Criticism

Paul

Has anyone got any tips on how to better accept criticism?  I am terrible, as my wife will attest but now I know the reason why I find it so hard, is there anything I can do about it?

  • Take it it as meant if it's actually constructive. But if it's insulting or demeaning? Don't be afraid to say so. When you get right down to it, it's your decision. But letting someone know that what they are saying is unacceptable and insulting cannot be wrong. Just be careful how you explain that-I've had very bad reactions from people with very different opinions.

    If you think it's not worth it? Just ignore it and look like it matters to you. Sometimes, that's all you can do.
