Criticism and Constructive Criticism

There is a difference between criticism and constructive criticism.
Criticism generally is offered up with destructive intentions.
Constructive criticism is generally offered up with constructive intentions.

Most people dislike criticism. So we tend to put all feedback into the criticism pile. But that should be done very carefully. A lot of what we would disregard as criticism has some value. Some of that feedback should be put into the constructive criticism pile.

If we throw everything into the criticism pile and disregard it, we rob ourselves of many clues and hints that could be making us and things better.

I’ve learned that even some of the more distasteful criticism often has a measure of validity to it.  So even in what feels like vile criticism, there is something I can gain from it.
