What’s the difference between criticism and correction?
- Criticism seeks to tear down; correction seeks to build up.
- The one criticizing feels some pleasure in saying what they say; the one correcting only finds pleasure in helping their friend change for the better.
- Criticism is often a habitual thing. Correction is only done when necessary.
- Critics often rush to offer their opinions. Those seeking to correct usually do so with some reluctance.
