Comments on: Critical about Criticism http://www.mindstructures.com/2010/01/critical-about-criticism/ about mind versus matter and collective versus personal development Mon, 26 Jul 2010 04:14:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Annemieke http://www.mindstructures.com/2010/01/critical-about-criticism/comment-page-1/#comment-250 Annemieke Wed, 27 Jan 2010 21:13:37 +0000 http://www.mindstructures.com/?p=4284#comment-250 Yes, I also think it is mainly seen as one. But for my own understanding, I found it important to differentiate the three. But I kind of got away from your point in the original post about how to deal with criticism. Which was actually a much better point, because that is what someone can choose. You can influence how to react to something that happens, including receiving criticism. And not so much on what others do. But I was kind of looking at it in a more general way, especially because in some cases I just love it if criticism is possible. Especially when discussing certain complicated ideas, which makes it necessary to be able to criticise many points. And when that is possible in a really respectful way, I just love it. I have also learned a great deal from your post, all of those I read from you actually. You really have a way of deep and thoughtful writing, which makes me think further.

When we are being criticized, we make an analysis as to what is the motive behind. Commonly, we see it as an attack to our person, and thus we react irresponsibly. Feedback and judgment should be differentiated from criticism, but the common attitude of many is to see them as one. And so I have made a composition that will make my readers see the true premise behind each criticism. I have certainly learned something here. :-) When I write my post about criticism I have three interpretations on my mind (feedback, judging and negative criticism), and I have incorporate them all in the concept of criticism.
