Special Considerations when giving criticism

The subject of appropriate occasion is something that is very hard to judge. In societies where there must be quality control and there does need to be evaluation and criticism of sloppy practices, then often one cannot wait for the right opportunity to come along by accident. In such a case we have to do our best to create the opportunity. Apart from keeping to all the five principles already mentioned, there are two extra considerations which we should bear in mind which can help to create favorable circumstances for giving criticism:

1. Praise them before we criticize them.
2. Smile when we give the criticism.
3. Don't criticize out of anger.
