When someone criticises you:
1. Consider the Source.
How much do you care about this person?
How much do you trust them?
How close are they to you?
Do they tend to criticise everybody?
2. Decode the emotional message.
close relationships
eg. wow! u really want to spend time with me.
3. Separate your worth from your performance.
We all have value because we exist.
Our performance on any given day will go up or down.
And usually people are criticising our performance.
Worth is consistent. Performance goes up and down.
4. You be the judge.
Is there any truth in it?
We all deal with criticism in pretty much every relationship.
You're worth and you have value even though people aren't always happy with what you do.
