To find flaws in everything.
But the doers have many jobs:
- To do the right things anyway
- To be a good listener generally yet be the worst listener to critics
- To be your own teacher and objectively learn lessons from everything
- To navigate your conversations away from critics, because too much criticism (even if it is a lie) diminishes your energy,
- To be quiet and behave like an unaware human around chattering cynics.
It is always easier to be a critic than to be a doer. But oh, the life of a critic is simply the tyranny of letting your mind eat itself and never grow after turning 8, even at 80.
