No one enjoys being criticized, but does that necessarily mean that all criticism is bad? I realize that this logic may differ from the norm; however I for one do not think that all criticism is bad. There are two types of criticism, destructive and constructive. If the criticism is designed primarily to “tear down”, then it is destructive and is definitely a bad thing. If it is aimed at helping build up or improve, then it is constructive and is probably a good thing, provided however, that it is offered as a means of calling a problem to your attention of which you may not be aware and is perhaps followed by a suggestion for improvement. As long as it is not solely rendered as criticism, in my mind it is a good thing, (even though we don’t enjoy hearing it) . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/index.php/2018/05/criticism-2/
