Take Feedbacks positively:

As a freelancer you will get all kinds of comments from your readers as well as from the client you are working for. Take these feedbacks positively, and try to improve yourself in the things you are lacking.

Your client provides you feedback because he/she is happy with your work and wants to improve few loopholes. It’s same with readers, if you think that negative comments are genuine then try to improve yourself and don’t bring your ego in between while getting feedback.
