Learning Challenge: 10 Reasons to Stop Judging People

For this weeks Learning Challenge, I have decided to read an article about empathy called '10 Reasons to Stop Judging People.'

I found this article to be something that everyone could use in their life. Judgement is something that everyone takes part in, but it is up to each individual to change the way they partake in this act. This article highlighted that it is human nature to be judgmental and to not feel guilty about it. However, you need to change the frequency of how often you judge. Another thing that is important to change is your thoughts before, during, and after you pass judgement. The article says to think 'just like me' when you judge another person. This puts yourself in the other persons shoes. Another important lesson I took away from this article is becoming more comfortable and okay with yourself. The more you are okay with the person you are, the less likely you will feel the need to judge others. Often the reason we judge others is due to our own insecurities.
