Shownotes Transcript

Hardly anyone likes to receive it, but we are rather quick to give it to others: Criticism. According to an online source, this is how it is defined: Criticism is the judgement of an object or action based on standards. If we are honest, these standards are very often very personally coloured and are not only often very subjective, but also change relatively quickly depending on the situation and personal feelings. Criticism in itself is actually a good thing. It's a kind of assessment that helps you to see from the outside whether you are where you want to be. The ability to take criticism therefore often gets you further than resistance to criticism. Receiving criticism is an opportunity to move forward. It is not always justified, because sometimes the motives behind the criticism given are not clear. But where it is serious and well-intentioned, it has great potential for improvement. As in sport: no pain, no gain.

I wish you an extraordinary day!
