Criticism is better than praise, because praise makes a person go very high, the result being self approval, self liking, and pride, which can lead to immediate destruction and a big fall. Criticism, on the other hand, keeps a person low, the result being humility, a laudable quality. Innate base human nature is the total opposite, we love praise and hate criticism. Allah says in the Quran, "It is very possible that you dislike something, whereas it is better for you, and it is very possible that you love something whereas it is bad for you." Human intelligence, with regards to knowing what is good and what is not, is extremely shallow.
However, the ideal condition is not to get affected by either one. (criticism and praise)
