How do I stop being judgemental?

The best way is to not say anything that is not nice. The whole do unto others as you want done to you. So don't say anything to anyone else that you might find hurtful or offensive.

Being judgemental can be challenging because it cannot allow people to love you for your person, but for the thoughts and criticism you have of others. You also have a hard time focusing on yourself because you focus more on others and how they live their lives, because of this you are automatically you are making less progress on yourself and not working on your own flaws and your own feelings and emotions as much as you could. Because this is what we are supposed to do, we are supposed to advance, evolve, learn more about ourselves as human beings. To stop being judgemental you have to start recenter your perspective more on yourself and your own life, learn to be and have a more positive outlook on people and life. It isn't judgemental if you train your brain to only have good and friendly thoughts about others. Become more altruistic instead of judgemental, realize we are never perfect to mother earth, we are born and brought up equally as human beings as much as we have our differences physically, financially, socially. You have to learn to look beyond that, to find peace with yourself and your own person and what you want to become and how you want to live and find happiness in your life, in order to do that you'll automatically want to have less judgement on others because your judgement is taking energy from you subconciously and it can make you feel very negative depending on the situations. So start living for yourself, do you just like everyone else does themselves, there isn't a particular way one should do anything. Simplify all your thoughts and try to just focus on yourself and live life fully! =)

Come to realize that everyone is different. Just because people do things differently than you doesn't make them any less of a person...Respect people's differences❤

It is natural to judge people, we all do it but if you’re doing it constantly in a negative manner then maybe you should put yourself in that persons shoes and imagine how you’d feel if you wasn’t them. You don’t know what other peoples life circumstances are and what they’re going through so try being positive rather than thinking you’re better than others.

Try to treat everyone the way you would like to be treated and put yourself in other people's shoes.

Put yourself is that other person shoe. if that was you then you wouldn't want others laughing so maybe you shouldn't do the same

For me, the path to being less judgmental starts at compassion point, and continues on through empathy avenue.

you could ask for help if you want that. Don’t pass judgment. Understand Accept and love.Once you’ve accepted someone for who he is, try to love him. Even if you don’t know him. Even if you’ve hated him in the past. Love him as a brother, or love her as a sister, no matter who they are, old or young, light skinned or dark, male or female, rich or poor.And yet, while it is in our nature to be judgmental, I don’t think it’s always useful to us. We look down on others, as if we are so much better … and that creates division between people.

You can begin by putting yourself in their shoes. Imagine yourself in their situation, think about your responses and how you’d react recieving them yourself. Try being more positive about situations you are in before trying to be positive about other peoples situations. If you are a negative person, you will end up casting a shadow on other people as well. If you are judgemental of people you are unfamiliar with- try talking to them and get a feel for their personality. You may be surprised by how understanding and kind people can be. Being judgemental can also stem from past experiences of people being judgemental of you. Remember how that made you feel if this is the case and recognize that you wouldn’t want to put anybody else through that.

It's difficult to stop such a negative mannerism but it is do-able. Being judgemental usually comes from fear. You judge others before they judge you so that you can have a pre-emptive strike ready for the person that you are judging. It's basically a defense mechanism. If you judge someone to be bitchy, mean, judgemental or aggressive etc, then you can think of things to retaliate with before they even have a chance to be the person you think they're going to be. In this case, most people need to be more confident in themselves. It also usually stems from previous negative experiences where perhaps you've been bullied or judged yourself or even by yourself and that's where this defense mechanism established itself. It's not an easy task and it is most definitely not quickly overcome but if you have the will power and strength, you can control your negative thinking by replacing them with positives. Instead of thinking that you need to retaliate, you could think of ways to diffuse the situation and take the insult or whatever it may be, lightly. Some situations that become bigger than what they need to be, needn't have come to that. Simply being civilized can counteract those types of incidents. But, being judgemental is not necessarily a bad thing. As stated before, it's usually a defense mechanism. Sometimes, it's better to be ready for a negative outcome but it doesn't mean that you should be negative towards someone without good probable cause. There's no harm in being ready for a negative situation but don't expect there to be one. That's the difference between being judgemental and thinking judgemental. Being judgemental = acting negatively towards the person for no good probable cause. Thinking judgemental = being prepared for a negative situation but not acting upon impulse. Hope this helps.
