How to take a punch in the criticism

When you show your work to the world, you have to be ready for "the good, the bad and the ugly." The more people will see your work, the more criticism you will fall. Here's how to take a punch:

1. Relax and breathe.

Problem people with a rich imagination that we can easily imagine the worst thing that can happen. Often these fears are far-fetched. Criticism is not the end of the world. As far as I know, no one has ever died from a bad review. Take a deep breath and accept in advance everything that will happen to you.
 





2. Become stronger.

Learn to take a hit, you can, if you frequently put yourself at risk. Show a lot of work. Let people say what they want. Work even more and continue to show work to the world. The more criticism you hear, the sooner you will realize that she can't hurt you.

3. Dodge blow.

Move. Any new criticism is an opportunity for a new job. You can't affect what you receive your work, but you have the power to determine how you will react to it. Sometimes, knowing that people don't like something in your work, you get even more work in this direction. To do something that will cause them to have more hatred. To cause some people to hate your work even honorable.

4. Protect vulnerable places.

If your work is too personal, don't show it. But remember, says writer Colin Marshall: "the Continuous evasion of criticism is a kind of suicide." If your whole life you will avoid situations in which you may somehow hurt, you will never be able to establish real contact with other people.

5. Don't lose your balance.

Remember that your work is something you do, not what you are. The most difficult to accept this fact artists, because most of their work is very personal. Stay close to family, friends and those who love you for what you are, not only for your work. published
