Many of us are not opened to being critiqued, it can be difficult to hear and receive. Criticism is the expression of disapproval based on perceived faults or mistakes. I recall asking a manager for constructive criticism and was told there was nothing to critique. That comment said a lot to me, we all have something that can be improved upon. We must be careful when someone is always praising us who is in a position of power. While we may be doing amazing things we can always use helpful and positive feedback.
Being open to sincere suggestions that will propel us further along can be beneficial. It's easy to detect negative feedback from a jealous person, often times their words are filled with harsh tones and degrading comments. Some of us find it hard to accept any type of critique, we become offended and defensive. If you are fortunate to have someone in your life who cares enough to share good ideas of how you can better yourself, improve your life, increase in happiness or excel in business/career, cherish them. We want to surround ourselves with those who have our best interest at heart. How sad it is to be connected to people who never speak up. And watch you fail. Useful critique is needed and when applied can bring about favorable results. Let's be open to improving and being better.
