Do You Accept Being Criticized Without Getting Angry?
Learn to accept criticism without feeling hurt.

Our parents, siblings, coworkers, supervisors, and other individuals frequently criticize us while also complaining about our actions. This annoys us and prompts us to defend our actions, frequently before the person who is criticizing us has had a chance to fully express their viewpoint.
This kind of criticism is rarely productive.
However, you must be intelligent and absorb criticism without adopting a pessimistic mindset because doing so will enable you to respond with superiority and help you improve as a person.
Thank those who criticize you for showing you your mistakes, saying that you didn't see what you were doing wrong. Say you will think about it. Don't complain and don't get angry.
This way you will understand what displeases others and try to improve your behavior, even if it is uncomfortable at first.
Many times you know what those around you dislike, but you keep doing the same things because they are convenient for you or because you are used to acting this way. However, you better try to change and adapt to the need to avoid causing trouble and keep the peace in your social environment.
On the other hand, it might be better for you if you learn to behave differently. While it's unpleasant to be criticized, it still shows you what makes others upset.
The Constructive Criticism of the Unconscious Mind in Your Dreams
If you learn to interpret the meaning of your dreams according to the method discovered by Carl Jung, you will see that the unconscious mind that produces dreams constantly criticizes your behavior, showing you your mistakes and defects.
You should feel grateful for having this information because the unconscious mind acts as a psychotherapist that helps you transform your personality and acquire sound mental health.
Therefore, do not think that the criticisms of the unconscious mind are like the complaints of others, like the criticisms of those who live with you and expect you to do what is favorable to them. Criticisms from the unconscious mind seek to open your eyes and help you behave better so that you can evolve.
You will often tend to get irritated by these criticisms, just as you get irritated when other people criticize your behavior, but you must remember that criticism from the unconscious mind is always constructive and helps you see mistakes you don't see to show you how you should behave to be a wise and balanced person.
Sometimes the unconscious mind highlights mistakes in your behavior that you don't ignore, but that you don't try to correct because you think it's not possible, or because you are too lazy to do something to have a positive attitude.
The unconscious mind will repeat this information over and over again until you decide to change your attitude.
Other times the unconscious mind will show you mistakes you are not aware of that even your best friends don’t dare to tell you because they are afraid of your negative reaction or because you will surely feel ashamed. So, the unconscious mind does you a big favor by showing you the truth.
However, you tend to justify your faults and mistakes in various subjective ways, and therefore you refuse to see how harmful they are for yourself, in addition to causing problems in your social environment.
The unconscious mind has the patience to show you in many ways why you need to change your behavior until you understand the importance of this need.
Therefore, develop the ability to accept criticism without becoming upset, whether it comes from those close to you or the unconscious mind.
Although criticism can be unpleasant, it can also help you act responsibly and deal with challenges in life more effectively without upsetting others who depend on you.
In the end, you will realize that feedback always helps you get better, and you won't take it negatively any longer.
