Criticism

After read "How to give and receive criticism" by Scott Berkun, I had a new thought about Criticism. In this article, he mentioned about how to give good critics. Good critics can really help others to improve their works. However, there is no measurement to define good or bad critics, you cannot say something is great because you love it or you just hate it then you not respect other's hard working. Critics should be objective. Also, Making Criticisms doesn't mean yours advise have to be received, because one problem solved may cause another problem, do not push others to accept your opinion. More importantly, the way you telling others your thoughts. The way you talk like "PNP"may make others accept your thinkings easier.

Actually, Receiving criticism is much harder than giving for sure. For designers, they love their ideas and hard to change them. However, you cannot deny sometimes changing can really improve your works. Thus, listening to critics and considering about their advise is important, no matter you take it or not.

For me, I think helping others to improve their works and receiving suggestions is very useful. After read this article, I did learn something about what I should do when I disagree critics- be a good listener and think more about own work.
