Criticism is 1.The expression of disapproval of someone or something based on
perceived faults or mistakes. 2.
The critical assessment of a literary or artistic work.
Often when I search the internet for
information, I see dozens of embarrassing critiques on a single page directed
to the owner of the site or active representative. At first, I was wondering
how the person in question would be able to survive the furious fans. I meditated
on this issue of criticism for long that it almost wore me off. These
criticisms of a thing made me do some research for nothing less than two days
trying to find a solution on how to handle criticism when it comes my way. I
focused my attention on some of these points:
·
Why the critiques: Here,
I noticed not the critiques at most cases arise from argumentative or logical
topics introduced by the person targeted.
·
What served as catalyst: I found out that the
person targeted was in one way or the other trying to prove to the critics that
he/she is right from whatever angle. On trying to prove this, the critique
brings up more annoying statements to the fore. At this point, the targeted
normally perceive the fact that it is getting back to him/her harder and more
personal, thereby attempting to respond in a personal manner to prove that
he/she is human with normal sense of reasoning, in most cases using some
abusing words directly directed to the critic. When the critic sees the angle
it is elevating, he will like a soldier does, retrieve and reform then comes
back with more and more sophisticated weapons of the mind coming in the form of
words, writing or presentation. Definitely, it gets to a point where others
from nowhere join the battle thereby making it worse than before. It keeps
circling in a round form maintaining the laws of the universe and will never
stop until they embrace the third point where I focused my attention.

How to respond to respond to criticism: The next
few paragraphs are important please read it understandable for you to know
exactly what you should do when your fans or clients disagree with the content
you presented.
Why the Critics; try to by all possible means understand why
you were criticized. If you are able to get an idea of why the criticism came
about, you will stand a better chance knowing what and where to start.
Respond Responsively; when you receive critiques, do
not just type or say anything that pleases you. Rather think about what you
want to say and make changes if necessary.
Learn from It; after analyzing the critiques, Endeavour to
make a change and learn from your mistakes. Remember that you are not perfect
and what the critic does is to bring to the fore the weak or bad part of you.
Therefore, you have to follow it up with maximum understand as you it is not in
every point that the critic gets it right.
Reorganize the
Content “if” Necessary; if
you were able to notice the critic area of centralization, then determine
either to make changes or to ignore the critic.
Look for Better Idea; If you cannot make necessary changes where
you should either because you do not know how to come up with a better idea,
then it could be best to do the following:
ü Ask the critic the possible ways to make it
better but if you are not comfortable with this option, maybe because your ego
couldn’t allow you the try
ü Meeting a friend you trust and who knows
better than you in the field and learn from him. You can also learn from a
colleague or group of experts in the subject matter.
ü Search for articles or forum post, blogs and
all that addresses issues relating to your need.
Thank the Critic; never fail to appreciate the role and or importance
of the critic in improving your business and knowledge base. Few lines of words
or a paragraph can do. Therefore,
you do not necessarily need a page or new post to say thank you very much for
helping me realize my mistakes I really do appreciate.
It is to my notice that some people have developed thick skin
as a means of handling this important tool for business improvement. However, I
will advice that you change that attitude because it is not the better option
and never will it be. Nevertheless, if you think you don’t concur with me, why
not implement your own strategy.
Thank you so much for reading this far hope it
is informative. If so, please comment and share with your loved ones.
