Mindset by Carol Dweck, depicts that different people take criticism in different ways and I think that I take criticism differently depending who is criticizing because I have more respect for some people than I do others. I take criticism from coaches, teachers, and experienced people in general better than I do others. I take it well from them because they know what they are talking about and their advice will probably help me in the future. If someone who is less experienced than me or who I don’t respect criticizes me I take it very poorly. I end up thinking what do you know”, or “You are horrible at this why should I listen to you.”  Even though I hate to admit it sometimes after a coach or a teacher says something to me I blame it on others. Criticism on me means that I am not perfect and I mainly take it to heart and learn from it. Sometimes if I get over criticized or if I am doing multiple things wrong I shut down and don’t listen to anything and rely on myself for everything. Mindset by Carol Dweck depicts, that people take criticism in different way and I take it according on who gives it.
