Accepting Criticism

I don't know about you, but it's  tough to accept criticism at times in our life, a lot of the times in our life actually, because well, we try to do what's right, what we feel is good and right, and make all of those proper decisions, and then when someone criticizes us, says that was not the best choice, or that was stupid, that was dumb, or why would you do that, and they criticize us, well, we don't feel good about that, and a lot of the times, at least if you were me, I would get defensive, at least I used to.
