Scott Young has a great blog and this is one post he had that is very interesting. It is like the thought, "You can't have good without having bad." They go hand in hand. This is the same concept but it is with praise and criticism.
He writes about how to not overly take praise to heart and get too confident because that leads to laziness. When you take praise in deeply, you will take in criticism deeply and that can really effect your efforts and outcomes!
He has a few tips he goes into detail on such as 'Stop caring what others think of yourself,' and 'Start caring what you think of yourself,' and lastly, how the ideal state of mind is 'humble confidence.'
