The Rush To Judgement

Journal Entry: 1-14-2012:

If it is not an emergency, if you are not under some critical deadline, do not rush to judgment. Snap judgments often backfire.

Often fault resides on both sides of a fracas. Often the actual facts of the situation are mixed and complicated.

Arriving at the facts of the given situation can be laborious and tricky. Once the vital information is gathered, the truth of the situation can be grasped and capsulized in a single sentence.

You know who is right and who is wrong. You know who is innocent and who is to blame, and to what degree. You may judge on the side of one or the other. Even if your conclusion is a  mixed judgement, it reflects you impartial approach and fair-mindedness.
