I recommend just saying “thank you” and then you can privately decide what to do with the feedback. There is usually very little that you gain from being defensive.

My question then is this: so instead of reacting defensively to real or perceived criticism what is the best way to respond? I really struggle with this.

Thanks for sharing Mrigna. You’re right – criticism can sometimes be a reflection of the other person’s state of mind. No matter what the intention, how we deal with criticism is our choice to make.

criticism under any situation.This is absolutely, we should react back in action and not verbally.Our action would prove our self- worth.I feel giving an ear to such remarks highlights our ego.Criticism to something negative is warmly welcomed though.Criticism of someone vividly shows how negative mindedness and jealousy the other person’s mind is filled with.
Thank you.

Thanks for sharing that M. No one can ever change your identity if you don’t let them.

Criticism hurts much deeper when I let it cut into my identity. I still love the Message version of Isaiah 51:7-8, especially for situations where the criticism is meant to be insulting and destructive.

“Listen now, you who know right from wrong,
you who hold my teaching inside you:
Pay no attention to insults, and when mocked
don’t let it get you down.
Those insults and mockeries are moth-eaten,
from brains that are termite-ridden,
But my setting-things-right lasts,
my salvation goes on and on and on.”

The “those insults and mockeries are moth-eaten from brains that are termite-ridden” part makes me smile a little.
