Thank God it’s Monday!™ Our good old friend Mr. Criticism. Who hasn’t run into him before?
Sure, we take it from our kids as they give us a hard time around the dinner table. But how do we handle criticism in the workplace?
For starters, you can’t let it bother you. Some critics are critical simply because they’re jealous. Some are bitter. And some are having an awful day. But every so often you’ll find a genuine critic in the best sense of the word—and it is to these critics that you must open your ears.
What an opportunity! Find some truth in what they have to say, and you can grow. Now sometimes it’s complete rubbish. But there is usually at least 1 percent of what they have to say that could be helpful if you took it in.
You’ll know what criticism is worth listening to. Just stay strong and evaluate their words honestly, and apply changes.
Have a great Monday!
