I know your feel. Critique is very hard to take, which is why I try my hardest to clarify what I mean in a way that is understandable

Have you considered that you don't wish to finish your art cause of the composition? Alot of the time, having a strong composition will attract your eye as an artist and make progressing the picture much more interesting that if you didn't. If you're looking for online stuff, photography is a good place to look- tutorials on composition for it. Artists seem to 'brush' over the subject, and very few art books I've seen actually explore it at all. I have one on painting, and a comic making book. I had no idea about composition in fact till my brother pointed out why some of my art worked, and some didn't, and it was cause my natrual visual aesthetic had a 50% hit chance on composition. The well composed ones were easy to finish, while others I struggled with. He at the time was studying photography. He's not really an artist, but he has a very keen eye for lighting and stuff with his film and photography. IT's SO important. I suggest looking up some tutorials on it- rule of 3rds, repetition, whitespace, black space etc... For instance, this picture might be getting more attention than usual from you as the perfectly centred composition is striking
