Criticism: Why It Hurts and What to Do About It takes a balanced approach to criticism by recognizing that not every negative comment deserves the same response.

Some feedback can provide valuable opportunities for growth, while other criticism may be irrelevant, unhelpful, or unnecessarily harsh.
