How do you deal with criticism and feedback?
Well, when it comes to criticism and feedback, there are a few approaches one could take. The first option is to go on the defensive and reject any notion that you could have possibly made a mistake. This approach is particularly effective if you want to maintain your stubbornness and arrogance.
Alternatively, you could try to completely ignore the criticism and continue on your own path, blissfully ignorant of any potential flaws in your behavior. But if you're looking for real personal growth and improvement, then the best approach is to take the criticism in stride and use it as a learning opportunity. Just don't forget to add a healthy dose of self-deprecation and sarcasm along the way.

It also depends on how that criticism is made and what criticism it concerns. In general, not all criticism is justified. I am increasingly able to see it as a learning opportunity and not (immediately) get defensive.
Today I got feedback and didn't ignore it. I immediately went to do something about it. So I changed my previous answer, because I can say I'm ignoring it, but in practice, I'll take it closely and use it to improve. Learned something about myself today.
