Answer:
break it down:
1. "we can improve our relationships if we become encouragers instead of critics."
this means that you can further, and fix, and improve any relationship if you encourage people, not knock them down. if you knock them down, they wont want to be around you, so encourage them, make them feel happy.
2. "Keep away from those who try to belittle your ambitions."
dont be friends, or dont talk with people who try to tell you that you cant do something, or that your not good enough. for example. if you really want to be a doctor, but this friend tells you that you are not smart enough to be a doctor, dont be friends with them. they dont care. you can do anything if you put your mind to it
