Do not worry about criticism in life

Take criticism as a motivation

See critic as a motivator. Do what they say that you cannot do. However, do only if you want to do. You are born to do all that you want. Let not somebody's words stop you.

"A great pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do." ~ Walter Bagehot

Take roads less travelled

If you want to avoid criticism, go with the crowd. However, if you want to lead life in your way, take roads less travelled. Yeah, you know that it is full of difficulties. Remember, out of difficulties comes an opportunity.

Do not think too much

Before taking any step, we think what our family, relatives and friends will say. If you really want to do something, do it. People will always have something to say. Indeed, you will be criticized if you fail. Remember, you will find critics even if you succeed too.

Listen to everyone and decide yourself

We take suggestions and opinions of others while taking some big decisions in life. It is all right to take benefits of other's experience, but do not accept their limitations as yours.

"I do not care so much what I am to others as I care what I am to myself." ~ Michel de Montaigne

Do not take criticism to heart

Carmen Electra said once, "For some reason if we hear 100 praises and one criticism, we focus on that one hurtful thing."

There is no need to take criticism personally. Most of the time people around you criticize because of their own regrets in life. Their words of criticism come out of anger for their own lack of strength. If someone speaks harsh to you, do not just react. Instead, Re-think and Act. Let your action speak more than your words.

Consider criticism as a part of success

Yes. Criticism is an integral part of success. Accept it. Take an example of any celebrity. The one who has the highest fans will have a huge number of critics as well.

Even the top- rated movie of the world, "The Shawshank Redemption" does not have 10 out of 10 rating. You can find people criticizing and saying that it is an "Overrated Movie". It is still on the top of the list. Therefore, never keep worrying about criticism. Keep going.
