Deep dives

Criticism is unavoidable and necessary for growth

Criticism is something that cannot be avoided by default, unless one chooses to not do anything. The fear of criticism often holds people back from speaking up and showing up publicly. However, criticism is not equivalent to rejection, but rather someone's opinion. It is an integral part of speaking up and improving oneself. Avoiding criticism hinders personal growth and prevents individuals from doing what they need to do to improve and achieve their goals.
