Even though it’s hard to ignore criticism, we would do well to focus on the helpful and positive and not to go on the fly in the ointment.
it is exemplary to focused on the positive.

True. I’m not saying that criticism is a bad thing 😉
Yet, sticking to (negative) criticism alone is the easy part of any communication. To see things form the other person’s perspective and trying to find the constructive elements is much harder — but makes communication work, at the end.
