Hey, this is Leo for actualized.org, and in this video we are going to talk about this topic of judgment. Very, very critical topic for doing deep levels of personal development.

So I'm very excited to break into this one

and crack it wide open.

What is judgment and why should we care about it?

Why is it good?

Why is it bad?

And what can we do about being overly judgmental?

So let's talk about that for a second.

Ultimately, let's get an understanding of what judgment is.

Judgment, when you judge someone or something or some

situation or yourself ultimately what's going on there is that your mind is bifurcating the world.

It's splitting it apart.

It's putting arbitrary divisions into a reality that is ultimately undivided.

So what's going on here is that you're seeing something in reality

that you either like or dislike and you start to label it and usually the labels are good and bad.

So you look at things in the world and you judge them, you evaluate them.

It could be a person. It could be a person.

It could be that person's appearance.

It could be that person's behavior.

It could be that person's philosophy or politics or religion. It could be what that person does with his life, the lifestyle

they choose to live. Or it could be a thing. You could look at a car and

judge it as being pretty or ugly.
