3. Depersonalize both events and actions. Most critical individuals tend to blame everything on other people. It is very probable that you may sometimes meet someone who gets on your nerves. At times, you will think that others turn your life to hell. Nevertheless, other people are too busy living their own lives and taking care of their own businesses. Do not focus on yourself and quit blaming others for all the negative things that occur around you.

4. Actions and people are two different parts that need to be separated from each other. Critical folks forget to filter these two which leads to even more issues. Be fair in your approach and do not judge people for what they do wrong. Always remember to praise them for what they do right. Assumptions that you make about others can be wrong. Evaluate the situation and see how you can adjust to you. Separate the action from the person who was involved into it and you will soon find a solution.

5. Pluses should never go unnoticed. Focus on positive things. Find good points in every situation and see what lesson it taught you. As a matter of fact, positives always outweigh negatives and if you learn to focus on good qualities and advantages, you’ll be less critical towards events, other people and their actions.
