Mental Training Case Study
Dealing with Criticism
At a quick glance, one could be surprise of how many people are actually “afraid” of criticism. By taking a closer look at the individual person, the fear becomes clear. Usually, hardworking, dedicated and highly committed characters can’t be satisfied with a “good” performance and only aim for the “excellent” level. A lot of energy, passion and commitment is invested in any performance, that any critical question or feedback – regardless of how innocent and with best intentions it was given – can induce severe negative reactions. People could feel offended or misunderstood and therefore develop nervousness, fear and insecurity.
Dealing with criticism can be learned. If you find yourself in such or similar situations, mental trainings techniques can help you. Such a tool is developed systematically, tailored to the individual client’s needs and included in the preparation of the performance. Within this process, the clients attitude towards the critics and the given feedback will be analyzed as well. Due to specific tools, you learn to develop realistic goals and how to handle pressure. These tools are then implemented into the daily routine, so that you will be able to retrieve those reliably under pressure.
Our aim is to support you in developing an attitude that allows to see a chance to improve in any form of criticism. That includes to learn to differ between the way a criticism is brought forward and the actual content of the message, which then can be implemented positively. This way you develop a behavior that welcomes criticism, so that you can continuously improve your performance.
If one offers you a poisoned apple, you can take a bite. But you don’t have to and may also reject it.
