Forgive the critic right away, even those who have bad intentions.
Not forgiving them hurts your own ability to feel good and focus on that which you want.
Think about the potential for truth
If you can find any use it as feedback to change your behavior positivity. Monitor your progress. They have given you a gift. Thank them and the universe for it.
Don’t dwell on the giver of criticism, his or her impression of you, or the possibility of future criticism
Dwelling simply makes one depressed. Instead think of the beauty in them and specifically the beauty in their criticism. Regardless of anything else a human being's ability to persist in using tactless methods to change behavior is just as amazing as their ability to change behavior tactfully by using kind words at the right moment.
