[color=66ff00]Positive criticism is also a good tool for improving. If someone criticises your designs then you're free to ignore them as it's your idea of art. If however someone criticises your methods, then it's often good to listen as you might learn a better method of achieving what it is that you are attempting to make.
Common sense you would think but some people put pride above wisdom to their own detriment. I've learned a lot just from looking at other people's models. Lastly I think it's important to know your own abilities and potential, don't be put off because there are people who are naturally better at making models than yourself, other modellers make better models than I do, I don't feel bad about this I use it to push myself to try to achieve more.
If you're not having fun, then rest for a while.
