What do you do with criticism?

Someone just criticized you. They gave you direct feedback that something about your behavior creates undesired consequences. How does that feel? What do you do with the criticism?

Whether you saw it coming or it blindsided you, criticism grabs your attention. It always does.

No one enjoys the feeling of getting criticized. But enjoyment has nothing to do with it. It’s about what you do with it.

You have two choices. Let criticism push you into a reaction. Or use criticism to improve your awareness, discipline, and confidence.

You choose your response, even when you don’t choose the feedback you get.

Event + Response = Outcome. Do the work.
