Sample Ask Silver Sage

Dear Silver Sage,   

What is the difference between a statement of fact and a Judgment, and how can I reliably identify Judgments within myself? 

Am I a JudgyJudge?

Dear JJ,

Great Question. Only you can know for sure. 

A statement of fact cites experience that is both objective and true in the moment. 

Statement: I’m irritated. I can’t get a straight answer to a very simple, very specific question. It is frustrating and enraging. I do not like how this feels. This is a Lesson. I have a Choice. I can be irritated or I can be productive. How do I want to use my energy?

A Judgment is a Refusal or Rejection that Reduces, Negates, Limits, Diminishes or Demeans both the object of Judgment and the Judge.

Judgment: Moron! Idiot! Dumbass! What’s wrong with you? 

How do those words Feel when you say them? What energies are present?

See the difference?

Judgments are always about The Judge. The Question is: How is this Judgment about Me? Where does it come from? Is it true? Does it Feel Good? Do I like it? If not, what am I willing to do about it? 

Not sure? Test it out. Take The Handbook for Humans No Judgment/No Damage Challenge: Try not Judging yourself for twenty-four hours; notice what happens when you do, and tell us how you feel. We’ll share The Wisdom in our next edition.

Let’s see what we can learn! Ready? Set! Go!
