‘If he be not a true man, he will draw evil out of the best; … if he be a true man, he will imagine true things…’- George MacDonald
We are good at judging people we don’t even know. When we meet other people, instead of focusing on what they are good at, we are after their weaknesses.
We are trying to figure out our differences. We are trying to know where they are different from us. That is wrong!
If you focus on other people’s weaknesses, you will never see their strengths.
If you want to know people, give them time to tell you who they really are. And they will.
Do not judge people before you even know them. We are good at doing that. And that is why we never get it right. Always wrong!
It is always wrong because you can’t judge what you do not know.
How can you judge someone you don’t even know? You can’t. Why is that? Because people are changing. You are changing. I am changing. And the world around you is changing. Nothing stays the same, even dead things.
You are not alone. We judge people every day. To do it right, if it is even right, you must start with yourself.
If you do not know others, you don’t know yourself. If you know other people, you know yourself. Because we see ourselves through the actions of other people.
People are great at heart. Whenever you meet people, do not start by judging them. Instead, give them love. And they will love you back.
Whenever you meet people, focus on what they can do, not on what they can’t do. And they will show you what they can do.
