"Before you assume, learn the facts. Before you judge, understand why. Before you hurt someone, feel. Before you speak, think." - Anonymous 

What is meant by judging someone? 

We might not have noticed, but all of us at some point have taken a person's appearance and immediately formed an opinion of them in our mind that takes a long time to change. We don't bother to wait until we talk to them or get to know them but make assumptions about them that are almost always wrong. This habit of the human mind influences our relationship with that person in the way we talk and behave. 

How it affects someone...

It may also affect what that person thinks of themselves because of your mannerism towards them. They might think you are undermining them and in turn will feel insufficient and incapable. This would lead them to believe that they have to change themselves. 

Don't change yourself for the sake of others...

And for all those people who have thought or felt the need to change themselves, here is a thought to hold on to -- You don't need to change yourself for the sake of others. People have something to say about everything and don't think before speaking but it is your choice whether or not to listen. You can either take their words seriously and start thinking that something is actually wrong with you when nothing is or you can ignore them and remind yourself that you're perfect and beautiful just the way you are.

How you can stop judging people...

It's wrong to judge someone before or after you know the facts. You can stop yourself from doing so as you become a better version of yourself everyday. You just have to remember to get to know them and not have a fixed notion in your mind as to how they might be just based on their appearance. Remember that a person's personality and attitude matters most.

So, put on a big smile today and be sure that being yourself and loving yourself is the first step to loving others.
