CRITICISM IS AN IMPORTANT ASPECT OF GROWTH

“Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfills the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things.” - Winston Churchill

Whenever we complete any task or job assigned, we look for appreciation or praise but if our work gets criticized instead of being praised we burn in the flames of agony and find a way to quit that particular project or try ignoring that kind of work. What we overlook is criticism doesn’t mean that you are not good enough; it simply means that there is a scope for better results. It is human perspective that how he perceives things, the glass can be half empty or half filled. Accepting criticism in a positive way will make you work even harder and with determination to give the best possible results and if taken in a negative way you might end up holding grudges for those who delivered such remarks.

Criticism is necessary for personal growth and success too. There are many reasons that prove that criticism is good sometimes. When our work is criticized we have an opportunity to analyze our own work and skills which will surely lead you to the path you belong. The path meant for just you. Criticism is just a form of communication which helps us know how we are working in a particular field. Only when we know are drawbacks we can improve. Moreover criticism is feedback and we all know how important the feedback of the services we deliver is. We cannot judge our work or services until and unless we get a feedback and thus taking criticism in a positive way will help us grow.

Criticism does not mean to use harsh words to hurt someone or let them down. The words could be chosen in a way that criticism is constructive in nature. Instead of yelling at someone one can easily let them know that there work is not enough in a calm and polite manner. This might sound funny but the successful people haven’t become this successful easily. They have underwent criticism, failure, loss, depression, anxiety etc but what makes them different is their never say die attitude.

There are times when team members at COMzen Technologies are not able to perform up to their level of performance, instead of using harsh tone we use constructive criticism to encourage him to keep working and also not making him feel small or unwanted.

To achieve something great you have to work outside your comfort zone and keep on working no matter what people says or believes. You know your dream is real and you can do it. Just keep the faith.
