I've had a great talk with some super amazing folks from twitter and we discussed few interesting topics as well around our psychology and beliefs regarding certain things.

Here's a thread(đź§µ).

Disclaimer - These are my personal thoughts and experiences, no set in stone facts.
1. Should we or shouldn't we judge people ?

- Well the real question should be, can we stop judging people ? And I don't think we can because we're programmed that way since ancient times. That's how our brain identifies

(2/n)
what to be afraid of or who to be afraid of and whom not. Whom to befriend and whom to stay away, all that is dependent on our nature of judging people.

So, I don't think the question is about should or shouldn't but rather how to judge people because we can't avoid it.

(3/n)
I think we should judge people but not with the intention of putting label on them like he is right or wrong or good or bad or whatever.

Most of the times, we don't and we can't know who is what because of the endless unknown variables involved in it.

(4/n)
So personally, I believe that we should judge to learn because observation is a form of judgement too. It's not like we're observing someone but not judging them or forming opinions at the same time.

It happens simultaneously, isn't it ? So judging them, their actions

(5/n)
certain behaviours, their mood etc. and tracking down the cause of it can teach us so much about our own mind as well. About why we do what we do or how even the most trivial matters affect us adversely.

It's like doing a case study on your brain without even realising it.

2. Why does someone help you ?

As far as I have seen, it's either because they've more than enough of that and now they want to share or because they're looking for an exchange of values (if they're expecting anything materialistic then it's mostly business not help).

(7/n)
Actually even that first category has some expectations too but it's very minimum and actually for our own sake.

They want us to see growing, not make the mistakes they did and give them feedback so they could improve too. Win-win for everyone.

The second category

(8/n)
consists of our friends, family etc.
They are looking for something in return which is a bit more than what it was in the first category.

It could be anything that isn't materialistic but is also visible enough and can't be ignored.

(9/n)
or people who learn and grow together mentally.

Hope you enjoyed the thread and share some insights that you have or DM if you like.
Always looking for amazing folks to have great talks.

And special thanks to @prvkhvr aka the Indian version of JP for teaching us how to think.
