29. “Don’t be distracted by criticism. Remember–the only taste of success some people get is to take a bite out of you.” – Zig Ziglar
Ziglar’s life started as being the 10th of 12 children, and when he was only six years old, his father and younger sister both died. That’s a lot for a young child to take in, but that didn’t stop him from finding his place in the realm of motivational speaking.
There’s a difference between constructive criticism and criticism to the point of tearing your work apart. It’s vital that you learn the difference so that you know what elements you should be working. The vindictive type of criticism serves no purpose other than to make the other person happy to see you prove them right.
