Greetings Beloved Ones!
It's a fact that everybody has an opinion and, they feel free to share them with you! Or, everybody is a critic and they feel free to offer critiques. The questions is, how do you feel being on the receiving end of all these comments and opinions?
Observe whether you have a tendency to criticize, complain, offer unsolicited advice, judgements, reviews, or just your random thoughts about someon else. I know I think, well I am just "sharing"! But we must check to see if we are also "sharing" the good things, things that encourage, inspire, uplift, and praise others!
. Do you criticize others, or offer advice, or judgments?
. How do you handle criticism directed toward you?
. How do you feel when criticized?
Make it a valuable day!

Rev. S it is so good to see you working your blog!
ReplyDeleteCriticism is someone's inner judge making a verdict on my life. I speak thank you if it helps me and a respectful hum hum utterance if it has no purpose I can see in the moment. I do not meander in the valley of other's thoughts. Each day is the day to uplift myself and others in thought and in deed! And so it is!

The work I do is often criticized or judged on a regular basis. Most times its subjective. In fact, I'm going through something right now where a co-worker refuses to present work to a client that my boss and I both think is superior to what she wants to present. Her critiques are unfounded and without substance. When I'm critiqued with solutions it's much easier to take. I feel on edge, attacked at times. If I do critique, I try to uplift and make the situation better.
ReplyDeleteGreat comments Rev. Mandara and Michael. I love your definition of criticism Rev. Mandara! I will have to use that!
