Why People Tear You Down
Negative comments can hit harder than we want to admit—online, at work, in families, at church, and even when we are trying to improve ourselves. In this episode of Quest for Success, Dr. Jerry Cunningham breaks down why criticism gets under our skin, what your brain and body are really doing when someone takes a verbal swing at you, and how to stop giving random critics control over your peace.
You’ll learn how negativity bias works, why some people tear down others who are trying to grow, and how to sort helpful feedback from plain old emotional garbage. We’ll also apply this to the five pillars of success—mentally, morally, physically, spiritually, and financially—so you can keep building your life even when the comment section gets ugly.
