When you are being criticised, learn to listen to it as if you are simply hearing an alternative way of looking at yourself (as indeed you are). Judge it honestly and see if there is any truth in it. If there is, accept what truth there may be and work to improve on that aspect of yourself with the attitude that it is simply another piece of stone that needs to be chipped away from your magnificent sculpture.
If you find that there is no truth in it, waste no more time on it; do not give ear to untruth; simply state that it is untrue and do not get involved in arguing about it. Sound "iti" in mind and allow your mind to move on gently to the next item on your agenda.
