How to Handle Criticism Well (and When to Ignore It)

In this upside-down year of 2020, it’s easy to second guess yourself. Even though you may not feel like it, you’re probably doing better than you think you are. However, considering you have never been in many of the situations you are currently facing because of the pandemic, you also probably have a lot of room for improvement. We all do, and there is no shortage of people telling us how we can do better: enter the critics. They come in many forms. Some are at work, some on the internet, some right in our own houses. In this episode on how to handle criticism, we look at 1) How to Do a Better Job of Handling People Telling You How You Can Do a Better Job! And 2) When to just ignore the “critics”.A critic’s job is to criticize, and it’s our job to realize…we are all a work in progress! If your defenses go UP when you receive a little criticism, then you might want to listen UP and learn how to wade through the criticisms without losing your cool.  Constructive criticism can be a catalyst for growth, and destructive criticism can be tossed out and forgotten, like last week’s old trash!  In this episode, we'll talk about how to tell the difference.
