If you think you are too judgmental and would like to change, the following tips will help you to be less judgmental.

• Respect other beliefs. You don't have to agree with them, but you should respect them. This will help you to be less judgmental. You have your own beliefs and opinions, and just as you are entitled to yours, remember that other people are entitled to their beliefs as well. This is perhaps the most important thing you will have to realize when being less judgmental-just because you were raised a certain way or have a certain set of beliefs doesn't mean that your way of thinking is the only right one. Don't have the attitude of, "There's my way and the wrong way;" instead, know that other people's beliefs may differ but that does not give you the right to look down on them or judge them.
• Take a look at yourself. No one likes a hypocrite. If you find yourself making judgments about other people, stop and take a moment to look at yourself and your own problems. Step back as an objective observer of your own life and see how it looks. If you are constantly judging other people for their problems and decisions, you have less time to take care of your own.
• Understand that people have struggles. You never know what people are dealing with. For example, perhaps you are silently judging someone for smoking and look down on their unhealthy habit. While it's true that smoking is unhealthy, are you doing anything unhealthy? Maybe you love Big Macs from McDonalds and have one every week. Or maybe you haven't had any type of physical exercise other than lifting the remote and walking to and from your car in months. None of these habits are very healthy either. The point is, for as many things that you judge other people about, they could probably do the same to you for your vices. Understand that everyone has things they struggle with, even you-they're just different.
• Be more compassionate. Being empathetic and compassionate towards other people will help you to be less judgmental to other people. Perhaps not everyone had the same upbringing or life lessons as you, so in some areas they are disadvantaged. So cut people some slack. It's important for you to realize no one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes or learns things at a different pace.
• Don't give yourself permission to be judgmental. If you find yourself judging someone, stop. This might be hard if you're in the habit, but stop yourself and say, "I don't know what they are going through in life," or "They are entitled to their opinion," and leave it at that.

These are just a few ways you can be less judgmental.
