Our life is largely spent judging others, and it’s the easiest way to create conflicts, sabotage relationships, generate stress and lose peace of mind.
We all know this, but we still judge. Because judging is easy, taking action or starting difficult conversations is not easy.
No doubt, judgments speed up our decision-making. We have acquired this skill over generations to protect us from danger but the truth is, most dangers are the creation of our mind and they do not exist in real life.
Therefore, to access happiness and joy, create long-lasting amicable relationships, develop trust, and have a peaceful life, one would need to bring down judgments.A starting point for preventing yourself from judging others is to ask two questions, as you observe your thoughts:
- Is it true?
- How sure am I to believe it is true?
These simple questions would challenge your current way of thinking and would widen the window to see more into a situation.
Change your game!
