As a writer, I expose my work to constructive criticism from editors, peer reviewers, and of course my readers. To succeed, I try to remember their criticism is only meant to help me, and I try to separate the intent of the words from the speaker. If I am asked to GIVE constructive criticism to someone, I put my other hat on. I try to look at the big picture and only share suggestions to improve that bigger picture. If you search for “how to handle constructive criticism,” you’ll find reputable professionals who can answer this one with more authority than I have. Best of luck!

Sometimes I lie and tell people they are fabulous in hopes they will do the same for me. Although I guess that is not very constructive, or critical for that matter. These are great guidelines for conduct. My anger management mentor is always telling people how important it is to play nice and share.
