Well, while criticism is there everywhere, not all criticism is bad unless it is negative and deliberate. Then we feel bad, sad and become revengeful. If we have a positive mind, we take certain criticism for our improvement but such criticism is rare.

Two approaches: One, to retaliate and pay in the same coin - Atleast BP gets down.
Two, Swallo for the time being and repay with interest when your turn comes.
Ofcourse, the third option lies but we cannot become Gandhis suddenly.
I am in the habbit of smiling and swallowing and becomming silent boiled in revenge. That is cowardice, helplessness and unwanted maturity.
Retaliative and vocal people will not be criticised generally.

Clench my fist.
Grunt through my teeth.
Swear under my breath

you can accept criticism and try to take it on board,
or could not accept, not everyones perfect so what gives someone the right to criticise you.
point out some of their faults.
if you think the criticism has a point and is a fair criticism accept it.
if they are wrong dont

I swallow it up unfortunateley.. laugh it off.. then one day i won;t take it anymore and it ends up with me on top of whoever is giving the criticism and he doesn;t have much of a face left :/ well i eman that's probably what WILL happen. bloody chavs lol.

I TRY to use it creatively to do better. But that is hard. But you have to take what someone says about you with a grain of salt - most of the time you would be surprised to find out that what they are saying to or about you has very little to do with you personally - and more to do with them.

Personally, I do nont handle criticism very well. It will keep dwelling in my thoughts until I forget about it. It's something I'm trying to work on...

Criticism is pretty much worthless. One of the worst things a person can do is criticize another, especially a child. It produces nothing but bad results.

Like you say, we are often hit by criticism, especially here on Yahoo Answers. Personally I like to consider the possibility that criticism toward me is justified. When I get criticized I try to decide if it was well founded. Sometimes it is, and I rethink my position on the issue.

For example, I have had questions and answers I submitted severely criticized. Some of the time it was justified. I would rethink my position and perhaps reword or delete my offering.

If the criticism toward me seems not well founded I just consider the source and forgive the person. I am sure I have offended others as well.

I handle it with a chin up. if it is constructive criticism on the job I will take it for my improvement performance but if it is for my looks like my hair ,body etc..I will shoot them with my mouth.

criticism................. its good (sometimes a bad motivator )

if its a criticism from the team u r operating in ..............u got to be
1. more convincing about u r goals / intentions/
2. more reasoning about u r stand and its good effects.
3. work more as a team and target the criticiser even more with your reasoning than anybody else

now if criticism is deliberate...................just IGNORE ( sometimes u got to ignore in a way .........that the person criticising will never know ...lol) ...........cas the more u take it into u r heart..............the more it pains............

Deliberate criticism can be from anyone ..........from in the family or out.

I view it as a way to improve myself/my life/my performance etc.

Unless they don't know what the hell they're talking about, then I just get pissed.

that's a good question in truth we all deal with in our own ways. in the workplace.
some people you need criticized to get the best out of them like those with large ego's who will go out their way to prove you wrong when criticized.
while others will just crumb.

Sometimes criticism gives you a chance to look back at yourself and see if you have done anything wrong with or without your knowledge,because no one can be right all the time.So I think when we put a wrong step,criticism helps us correct it.

But when you find it just too much and nothing in it, the best way to deal with it is ignoring it.

it is not easy to handle criticism...but we have to use it constructively...Sticks and stones are hard on bones...
...aimed with angry art...Words can sting like anything
