If you are going places in life, you are not to give attention to everything say to you and about you, you must not listen to everything.
Whether praise or words that destroys you, giving too much attention to such words would only do one thing. The aim is to stop you from reaching your goal.
Praise is good to energise you to do more, but if you settle for it, you will not move on, negative words are also said about you to stop you, giving too much attention to either of the two, would stop you from going further.
