A Quote by John Wooden

As a leader, you will receive a large amount of praise and criticism and you should not unduly affected by either. — © John Wooden
As a leader, you will receive a large amount of praise and criticism and you should not unduly affected by either.
Know that the amount of criticism you receive may correlate somewhat to the amount of publicity you receive.
The way we respond to criticism pretty much depends on the way we respond to praise. If praise humbles us, then criticism will build us up. But if praise inflates us, then criticism will crush us; and both responses lead to our defeat.
It is important to know that criticism is a natural part of life and speaking out, and to know that a certain amount of the criticism you receive may have nothing to do with you, your argument, or the way you are articulating yourself. Some criticism online and in the physical world is neither constructive, nor balanced or intelligent. Some of it is abuse.
I can take any amount of criticism, as long as it is unqualified praise.
I would not unduly praise the virtue of restraint. It is often merely temperamental. But it is not always a sign of coldness. It may be pride. There can be nothing more humiliating than to see the shaft of one's emotion miss the mark of either laughter or tears. Nothing more humiliating! And this for the reason that should the mark be missed, should the open display of emotion fail to move, then it must perish unavoidably in disgust or contempt.
The one who knows himself isn't deceived by either praise or criticism.
Treat praise like criticism: refuse to accept either.
In one's relationship with dogs and with a newsroom, a generous amount of praise and encouragement goes much better than criticism.
It doesn't really bother us, the team that is in fashion or that is being talked about the most. Whatever praise or criticism we receive doesn't really matter.
It is normal to enjoy praise and dislike criticism. True character is when you prevent either from affecting you in a negative matter.
Neither criticism nor praise should be highly regarded.
No amount of praise should go to your head. You should always remain humble.
You can't let praise or criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught up in either one.
It is a mistake to suppose that the Supreme Court is either honoured or helped by being spoken of as beyond criticism. On the contrary, the life and character of its justices should be the objects of constant watchfulness by all, and its judgments subject to the freest criticism.
[The] amount of search is not a measure of the amount of intelligence being exhibited. What makes a problem a problem is not that a large amount of search is required for its solution, but that a large amount would be required if a requisite level of intelligence were not applied.
The praise of an ignorant man is only good-will, and you should receive his kindness as he is a good neighbor in society, and not as a good judge of your actions in point of fame and reputation.
