Defending yourself over something you did keeps you stuck in resistance. If someone has a problem with it, listen and sincerely consider their point of view. Acknowledge your role in the situation without attempting to explain yourself. If there’s validity in what they say, thank them and try to integrate the new information without beating yourself up over it. After all, you’re a work in progress. If the criticism seems unfounded, smile and…
Let it go.
