Summary
At some point in our lives, we all receive criticism. What’s interesting about unsolicited criticism is that the person doing the criticising is frequently attacking things they see as deficiencies in themselves. The truth is, I’ve never been attacked or criticised by someone doing better than me. The one’s doing better than me have always been the ones to reach out a hand and offer coaching and suggestions on how to get better. On today’s episode I’m going to teach you how to recognize unwarranted criticism, hot to use constructive criticism, and how to leverage the opinions of those above you.

| 0:21.0 | This is 15 minutes of freedom. I'm your host Ryan Nidell in today's episode is are you being criticized? |
| 0:28.0 | Today I want to I'm going to share with you my mindset as it pertains to being criticized. |
| 0:31.0 | And what you should do about it. |
| 0:37.4 | So it's so secret. Even the most popular presidents at any given point are only really liked by half the population. I tend to call that the duality of the universe, right? We can't have |
| 0:45.8 | the good without the bad. There's got to be almost a polarization of what goes on. |
| 0:50.0 | But it's easy to see that as it pertains to a president, right, or the Pope, because more than likely you probably don't know them personally. |
| 0:59.0 | It's great if you are the president listening to this, but I'm going to doubt that you are. |
| 1:04.0 | We're just quote unquote regular people. |
| 1:10.0 | But us regular people still fall victim to the same mindset, the same trap, the same duality. |
| 1:17.0 | I know as I started this show, there was at least half the population of people that I knew from my life up to that point that thought it was the most atrocious thing that I could possibly create |

| 1:44.5 | Jay White's brainchild at wakeup Warrior.com. Come on the backside of just like |
| 1:50.4 | this ultra-masculant energy coupled with all the things that I |
| 1:54.8 | needed to get off my chest. I was a very polarizing figure. Not fully |
| 2:01.4 | realize in today's climate in the economy that we're living in right now and the way that I'm presenting myself on this show |
| 2:09.0 | There's a chance that as you listen to this you only like half the episodes, or maybe you're |
| 2:13.8 | listening waiting to pick me apart and you have a hate group founded with your |
| 2:17.7 | friends and you just get around and laugh about what I talk about. I'm good |
