How to handle Criticism?

Everyday we face some sort of criticism or other... be it at workplace or home... family or friends... parents or in-laws. They keep saying rather shouting something or the other. They get a pleasure out of mocking or critisizing someone. For example, you bought a new watch which you liked so much, when you show it to your family they might criticize like "It's good.. but the color is bad.. it is too small... you could have bought something else". This is a very subtle way of critizing but your liking for the watch comes down because of this and your mood becomes worse with the same comment running all along for weeks. Throw it out of your mind.. Remember they are jealous of you that you made your own decision to buy what you liked!!!

You need to be emotionally intelligent to handle criticism... there can be two types of criticism:

 1. Criticism with good intentions like if your parent was criticizing you because he wants you to be the best, then better keep quite and dont give back. Think or judge whether the comment is correct or not, and try to improve yourself on it.

 2. Criticism with bad intentions, the person particularly makes sure to criticize whatever you do! This is because he/she hates you and is obviously jealous of you abt something. Dont give a damn to that person, dont respond immediately to show that his/her comment is worthy enough. Don't defend on the comment, Give back in a different direction so that the person keeps mum.

How do you handle such criticism? What do you do inbad criticism situations? What do you do to come out of it later? Do share with us...

Got a Meeting?  Take a Walk

PictureGot A Meeting? Take a Walk
More studies reveal the adverse effects of prolonged sitting in the workplace.

1.      Everybody sits more than they sleep -> Sitting for 9.5 hrs and sleeping for 7 hrs a day.
2.      Everyone has a lot of meetings everyday at work  -> If we start meetings with a walk around, we reduce the amount we sit.
3.      If we walk while meetings -> It is out of the box and it triggers out of the box thinking.
4.      Fresh air drives fresh thinking.

Many of us have on the go meetings (on phone), meetings having a cup of coffee, meetings while driving home... so why not try meetings with a walk?? Helps your waist!! Next time you have your meeting with not much to write down ofcourse, take a walk with others around your work place. I hope your office has some sort of a garden or a lawn :) Mine has a beautiful lawn, pathway, ponds and some ducks too!!
