The Critic

Everyone's a critic,
That doesn't mean everyone's a good critic.
I myself am a critic, that's why I have this blog but what astounds me now is how people when they are giving their opinion on someone else's work... it's usually a bad one?
I mean, people! There is a difference between criticism and constructive criticism... but you just don't understand!
Take me for an instance.
If someone asks my opinion on something I'll immediately look for the first thing I liked (even if most of it wasn't great) and I'd point out everything I like about something before I even say "But if I were you, I would just add this, or maybe try something different here"
I know I may be complaining but the thing is I can take criticism, as long as its constructive. But if you only tell me what I'm doing wrong instead of what I'm doing right I am going to feel very disillusioned. So if you are taking criticism from someone else just ask, "Okay... but what did I do right?"
Always see what you did right so you can work on that and what you did wrong, you can try to change to get that right too the next time.
Criticism, it's hard to hear, but as long as the person tries to add a positive, I'm willing to accept.
