“Denial by definition is a psychological defence system by which people protect themselves from things that threaten them or make them feel uncomfortable. People do this by refusing to acknowledge the awkward person, thing or event, or by attacking any allegation of the existence of such difficulties”.

I came across this detailed definition of “DENIAL” and some analysis into day to day life and work, I realize that almost all of us are more or less inflicted by “DENIAL”. Most of the people do not take “CRITICISM” in a normal manner. The first reaction to a single bit of “CRITICISM” is to go into a state of “DENIAL”. And as rightly said in the beginning, the reactions vary from refusing the allegations to attacking the critic in a variety of different manners. The former is the approach taken by most people wherein the “CRITICISM” has arrived from superiors or co-workers. The later approach of attacking the critic generally happens when the “CRITICISM” comes from a critic who is at a position lower then the person being criticized.

Brought forward from my old blogs which are no longer updated…

There are many important events happening around in my life both on the professional as well as the personal front. Ofcourse we will be talking professionally on this blog. Many a times it so happens that some events occur which in the whole context of either the project or the program being executed, is pretty much unnoticeable in the beginning, but turns out to have a huge impact on the final outcome.
