How to Handle Criticism

It is not necessary that everyone will approve you for what you are doing. You will encounter many people who will criticize you for your work or for nothing. It is your choice to make lemonade or a firecracker out of the criticism.

The first step is to listen to the criticism in a calm way. Categorize the criticism as constructive or destructive. You can quickly assess it by the intention and tone of the person who is criticizing. Do not explode and take constructive criticism very seriously.

Do not react and learn from the criticism. For avoiding destructive criticism, avoid people with negative vibes. Avoiding negative people in life is actually a self-treatment for anxiety so does that for your own sake.
