These criticism can be difficult to accept – but that all depends on your reaction. Either you use criticism in a positive way to improve, or in a negative way that can lower your self-esteem and cause stress, anger or even aggression.The key thing to remember is that whatever the circumstance is, don't respond in anger. Try to remain calm and use criticism to fuel your growth. We all learn by making mistakes, and refusing to admit to your mistakes can hinder your progress on being successful.Bet on yourselfIf you're not betting on yourself to win, no one else willDon’t give up just yet.
