DANGEROUS CRITICS



DANGEROUS CRITICS


Have you ever felt so bad  after someone passed a comment? Has anyone ever made you feel so bad about yourself? have you ever received comments that dampen your spirit? Have you ever felt worthless? If yes ,then you have just encountered a critic and a dangerous one at that.
To be criticized means to say that you disapprove of somebody or something or to judge the good and the bad qualities of something.  You cannot avoid criticism. Aristotle once said “criticism is something you can easily avoid by saying nothing, doing nothing and being nothing”
Constructive criticism is good but criticism that makes you feel bad about yourself, that is set to degrade and discourage you not necessarily to correct you should be avoided.
Its worse for people who get easily affected by what others say. I mean people who live on public opinion and acceptance. If you are somebody seeks approval from people or that takes in what everybody says about you, you might nee to have a re-think and start working on it because believe me you are going to meet several people whose aim is just to destroy your self esteem. some won’t even know they are hurting you. Sanguines   are very prone to being affected by what people say because of their extrovert , outgoing ’here comes the star’ nature.
