I have an acquaintance
who gives me
constructive criticism
EVERY time I see her.
Her criticism is valid.
She sees areas
I do have to work on.
But I now avoid her
whenever possible.
Because receiving constructive criticism
is an unpleasant experience.
And we, humans,
tend to avoid
unpleasant experiences.
Give constructive criticism
only when necessary
and preferably
when asked.
No one likes to hear it
all the time.
