Negative Comments are more Powerful
If they can temper your thought process
Let us start with a quick question before we scroll down
If you have a blog that is getting very popular and suddenly you get a comment on it-
“Horrible write up.”
What will be its result on your mind?
Well, it will impact your thoughts as a sudden shock, and all the appreciation you received for the same post will vanish from your mind.
All because of 1 negative comment. Sometime you will read again to check what went wrong.
But ask yourself will this make any difference to you? Will you stop writing?
The definite answer will be No.
Everyone has their thoughts and point of view. If we start taking each word on our life and act upon them, we will only end up in miserable situations as you are driving your own life, giving control to someone else will only result in a crash.
Always remember one thing We cannot please everyone.
You will always spot someone with an exception and a point of disagreement, sometimes a valid one, and mostly it will only be to get the unwanted attention.
Sometimes you can justify it, mostly take it as a healthy criticism, and move forward to improve.
Negative comments are like feedbacks that definitely will help us to improve, If everyone keeps commenting “Nice post”, how will you improve?
Take them as Feed-forwards
Some of the comments can be real feedbacks and will help you to evolve, Take them as feedforward, but do not let your morale go down because of the negative comments or words.
Instead, we should thank the people who say negative as they have actually read the entire post and
Respond to them in a healthy way
Negative comments are often seen as a starting point of debate as most people start arguing and proving their point, Respond to them healthily as there is no point to increase the anxiety for a comment.
Yes, the negative point mentioned may be right but check within.
Are you a Human or a Robot that is a program to perfection?
It is the ability to take criticism decides how mature you are, the day it is understood, things will look less complicated in life.
Real-life comment
My Travel blog Smileytraveller received a comment in my initial days of writing saying its a boring content.
I smiled for a brisk time and replied to it “ You can thank me as I assisted you in getting a peaceful sleep.”
life is not that difficult as it looks in our thought process.
Have you received any negative comments on your blog, how you responded?
