Criticism:

Criticism is the disapproval expressed by pointing out faults or shortcomings. The rules and
principles which regulate the practice of the critic; the art of judging with knowledge and
propriety of the beauties and faults of a literary performance, or of a production in the fine
arts; as, dramatic criticism. There are two types of criticism.
Constructive criticism, it is a type of criticism that every great person seeks out. If you are
trying to improve yourself, hearing how good you are at something isn’t helpful. It’s nice to
hear, sure, but what the person chasing excellence wants to know is, “what could I do better?”
Constructive criticism answers this question. It’s well thought out, objective, and the critic
gives it with a level head. If the criticism is accurate, then it helps you improve. If the criticism
is inaccurate, then you either learn what made the person see things that way, or ignore it.
Another type of criticism is Projected criticism, it is an emotional, negative reaction to
something you’ve said or done. If someone rants about how irresponsible you are, it’s
because something you did emotionally threatened them. Projected criticism is simply a
projection of a person’s psyche. It’s the result of envy, insecurity, or anger. It should always
be ignored.
In the light of above discourse, we can say that criticism is an evolutionary act of development
of mankind and their survival in the world. People must be aware of the use of criticism in
positive way in order to get the best out of it.
