Judging others and their decisions

I have started to have a very strong opinion about this because I feel my whole entire life I've been misjudged.  And more so recently, due to certain turn of events.

"Judging others is wrong"

But before I get into that, I feel people who come from wealth, or anything you can think of that people generally want, they are torn down by people who are jealous of it. I say "jealous" because they are jealous of what this person has or how they look and they wish they had it. They don't stop and think they are treating the actual person differently because of what they are jealous of. This person could be the most humble, generous, loving, giving person they ever come across, but if they are wearing an expensive designer bag they are all ready labeled and associated as someone they want nothing to do with. 

And ofcourse, the obvious generalizing of those who are different, in a difficult situations, or less fortunate. 

You never know why some people are in a certain situation, or act and talk a certain way.  Or you might think you know, due to knowing someone close to yoi in a similar situation.  Or even think you know due to similar persalonal experiences, with that specific person, or your own personal experiences.

But one can never know what that person is going through, or the decisions they make.

1. FULL FACTS?
Whatever the reasons that have led you to make a conclusion about someone, they may be based on incomplete information. Chances are you don´t know the full story, and that there is far more going on than you realise. So, since it's difficult to learn all the facts, perhaps it's better not to make a judgment. It's much more responsible to hold off until you know everything possible; and also realize that its impossible to know "everything".  Word of mouth travels with such biased changes.  Explanations, even from the source, can be misunderstood.  Sometimes, the spoken language is not effective enough, especially when feelings are involved.

2. NOBODY'S PERFECT

None of us are perfect, so why should we expect anyone else to be? When you criticise someones behaviour, consider whether what they have done is really so bad. You should also think about whether they have reasons to do what they've done.

3. TOLERANCE

Being more tolerant can be a good attribute to adopt. Perhaps you don't approve of what someone has done, but even so, unless it's something really awful, why not live and let live? Everyone makes mistakes, so accept that this is what may have happened.

4. DO UNTO OTHERS …

It's really not nice being judged, yet we so often do it to other people without thinking. So when you find yourself being judgmental, ask yourself how you would feel if you were the one on the receiving end? You wouldn't be happy, and you'd want people to be more understanding, so offer the same to others.
5. APPEARANCES CAN BE DECEPTIVE

One of the main reasons not to judge others is that things may not be as they seem. We can think that we know exactly what is going on, and yet in reality it's quite different. Be aware that there may be plenty that you are not aware of, and that you can't know for sure what is happening.

6. WE'RE ALL DIFFERENT

Everyone is different, and just because you don't approve of something doesn't mean that nobody else should do it. Think of tattoos, for example - you may not like them, but it's not for you to say that they look horrible. Other people are entitled to do what they want with their own body. We have to stop judging others based on our own preferences. Plastic surgery is also a great topic! Having implants labels you as a slut, easy, trashy, tacky etc etc. I can go on. It's just bags of water in your chest. Get over it. Everyone that has opinions on this topic wish they had them to begin with. I say this because I was once one of them =)

7. JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T LIKE IT...

… doesn't mean it's wrong. See the above point. We have a tendency to disapprove of things we wouldn't do ourselves, as if we define right and wrong! So try to avoid judging other people simply because they do things that you don't like yourself.

8. BEING BIASED.

8. SAYS MORE ABOUT YOU

Finally, perhaps the best of all reasons not to judge others is that doing so can actually say more about you than it does about the person you're criticising. Do you really want people to think of you as someone who is judgmental? Ask a friend what they think, and if they say that you do tend to judge, then it's time to start being more tolerant.

There are many reasons not to judge others, so if you find that you are doing so, start to reassess your behaviour. It's not a nice attitude to have. Obviously we have to make assessments of other people, but do so based on the right reasons. I am not 100% a saint on this topic. I do and have judged others. Most of the time I am very wrong on who I'm doing it to. Then I feel horrible after doing so.

I experienced some pretty horrible things lately, and been in some horrible places, which also made me one of those that I used to generaluze and make judegments.
I also learned recently, how difficult it is to explain as the person being judged.

Think about it.
