I believe that if I don't measure up to my own standards, how could I possibly measure up to anyone else's?> I don't think I really understand that.

Not necessarily agreeing with everything they say, but definitely giving it due consideration.Oh, I respect criticisms - I think I invite them. And I am very good at accepting critique with grace while face to face, and then thoroughly falling apart in private. I feel angry that something I've done has been judged not good enough, or detailed enough, or timely enough. Even when I realize - and I usually do - that the criticism is legitimate, I can't do anything but keep crying.
