Why should you consider your criticism objectively?

Answer:

It is easy to feel personally offended by criticism during a job performance review. However, unless your supervisor attacked you personally, you have no reason to be offended. A performance review is meant to be a constructive exercise aimed at improving your work, not one aimed at undermining you or making you feel bad about yourself. The only thing being judged is your work, not you personally.
☛ If you are having a hard time taking your mind off of the criticism you received during a difficult review, try using a technique called "Thought Awareness." As you feel yourself getting angry, sad, or discouraged in the face of criticism, take the opportunity to think about your thoughts. Think about why you feel the way you do and critically observe your own stream of consciousness. By "getting out of your own head," you give yourself a chance to react logically to your criticism, rather than reacting to the way it makes you feel.
