生活中,我们对问题的评判会影响我们的判断。文章主要讲了“评判”的坏处以及如何摆脱“评判”。
We may not have the full details and its likely that we are likely to judge something based on limited information. We tend to distance ourselves through our judgment and become disappointed with what we find. Judgment keeps us safe because we move our feelings of fear, shame and guilt onto others to make ourselves feel better. This comes at a cost of parting ourselves instead of building stronger connections.
The way out of judgment is through the power of gratitude, which helps us see things differently. Gratitude opens the door to our hearts and helps us consider things from different aspects. A heart filled with gratitude is unlike a heart filled with judgment, fear and anger. Consequently, judgment and gratitude are opposing forces. One is the field of the self and the other is expressed through true goodness and sympathy.
The key to recognizing our judgment lies in being mindful of our thoughts. I often tell coaching customers when they notice themselves judging, to stop and ask a simple question: “What am I not seeing in this situation?” This helps us notice where we are blinded by our bias(偏见) and unable to see the truth. It is my experience that judgment happens mainly in our connection with people.
We are unaware of other peoples motives and plans because we bring our own ill?natured thinking to the process. This was evident with the Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong, who convinced himself and others he did not cheat. He went to great lengths to deny his use of illegal performance?improving drugs. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, he said that his lies were so convincing that they eventually became truth.
But upholding a lie is harder than speaking the truth. In contrast, the power of gratitude allows us to shift(转移) our attention to the truth, even if it means our feelings will be hurt. Gratitude turns the switch from fear and judgment to sympathy and understanding. It is the bridge where friendships and tolerance are born.
