when someone criticizes you, suck it up. It's pretty clear to me that criticism is more valuable than praise. Ask the person who's criticizing you what you should be working on instead. If they're getting to you, ask what they've been working on themselves. (Don't ask this unless you have to, because if you do they'll probably stop criticizing you, and you want all the criticism you can stand.)
I agree, but it's also key to be able to judge criticism or advice after accepting it. Criticism that offends your sense of pride equally could easily be useful or plain idiotic and it's essential to come up with some metrics or even just a gut instinct to tell the difference.
