# Judgment
## Notes
Many believe that "good" and "bad" are concepts that are added to a situation, and not inherent in the event itself. Like missing the bus only to find later that the same bus had an accident. At first you would categorize missing the bus as a "negative" event, but afterwards you would consider yourself lucky. What had changed between those views? not the event itself, you still missed the bus either way, but the (Jump:: [[Context]]) has changed, and how we treat the event in light of that context. A change in judgment doesn't always stem from a change in our knowledge about the world, sometimes the change is completely internal, from the negative event we learn something new about ourselves, without a change in context.
It is up to us to determine how to label events, we choose the (Jump:: [[Framing]]) of an event, nothing gets registered in our mind without first being processed by us. We are the creators of our own (Related:: [[Narratives]]) and (Related:: [[Subjective Reality]]). judgment creates a tether between us and the event, sometimes preventing us from viewing it differently or noticing important information since it creates (Acka:: [[Cognitive Alignment]]). If something bad happened to us, the default response is to see ourselves as (Jump:: [[Helplessness|victims]]) and the event as inevitable, while something good is necessarily the result of our hard work (Related:: [[Just World Bias]]). Only by (Related:: [[Cognitive Distancing|distancing]]) ourselves and suspending judgement we have a chance for clarity and seeing things how they are.
Similarly, judgment can create distance between us and other people. If we are quick to label someone as "bad", we are much less likely to gain (Weakens:: [[Cooperation]]), and will likely cause the other to distance and protect themselves from us, limiting our chances for (Weakens:: [[Relationships]]).
We are either approaching a situation with a question mark (Aka:: [[Curiosity]]) or an exclamation mark , there is no room in between. We either suspend judgment and try to understand others and the situation more clearly, or we also come full with assumptions about the world, detached from how things really are, trying to force our view onto the world (Jump:: [[over confidence]]).
Remember that you never know all the facts, you never know what happens inside someone's mind, and that you are always capable of mistakes (and do so often), so be less judgmental, and more attentive.
