Are humans naturally Judgemental?

Is there a judgment about judging? We all judge. We are predisposed to this natural tendency; it is part of human nature. Our brains are wired to make automatic judgments about others’ behaviours so that we can move through the world without spending much time or energy in understanding everything we see.

How do you not let people judge you?

Here’s the DUAL method:

1. Don’t pass judgment. If you find yourself being judgmental, stop yourself.
2. Understand. Instead of judging someone for what he’s done or how he looks, try instead to understand the person.
3. Accept. Once you begin to understand, or at least think you kind of understand, try to accept.
4. Love.

Is it possible to stop judging others?

I’m not saying that we all have to learn to stop judging others. Maybe it isn’t even possible to do so because of the way we’re wired as human beings. But what we can learn is that our judgments mostly have to do with us, not the people we judge, and the same is true when others judge us.

Is it good to judge others?

The least amount of judging we can do, the better off we are, says Michael J Fox. Yet we often judge others, and don’t realize it. But interestingly a cousin confesses that she enjoys judging other people, it helps her boost self-esteem and she feels better about herself.

What can we learn from judging others?

But what we can learn is that our judgments mostly have to do with us, not the people we judge, and the same is true when others judge us. In most cases, we judge others in order to feel better about ourselves, because we are lacking self-acceptance and self-love.

Do the reasons that follow justify the behavior we judge people by?

The reasons that follow do not justify the behavior, but I believe they do help explain it. When we judge people harshly, we use others as a basis for comparison. We tell ourselves that our choices are pretty good given what other people are up to. We don’t use our own goals and intentions as our yardstick or benchmark.
