When you see someone not so good, Turn Inward Examine Yourself... (Confucius)
When we see persons of worth, we should think of equaling/emulating them;
When we see persons of a contrary character, we should turn inwards and examine ourselves. — Confucius
“When you see someone not so good, reflect on your own weak points.” — Confucius

Link to originalLook at the weaknesses of others with compassion, not accusation. It’s not what they’re not doing or should be doing that’s the issue. The issue is your own chosen response to the situation and what you should be doing. If you start to think the problem is “out there,” stop yourself. That thought is the problem. - Stephen-Covey - be-proactive
Turn inward and see if you can find a similarity that you were going to judge someone on within yourself. And spend the energy addressing it.

Another reason
We don’t know what others are thinking. Hence, we often think what the other person is thinking is alike ourselves. Now, if we trained ourselves not to judge, we will feel like we aren’t being judged. But if we violate this rule we will think that the other person might be judging us as well.
