I think, like most people, I have a knack for noticing the faults in someone else. I notice when something's not put away where it should be, when something's been left undone or done wrongly. Maybe I'm a little more prone to this, because I like things to be done right. To look good. I tend towards perfectionism 😕.
However, God's given me a way to help against judging others too much. He's given me a question to ask. "Do I ever do that?" "Could that have been me?" And if I'm honest with myself, I can usually see it in myself somewhere - and it stops me pointing the finger at someone else. Now it doesn't always work 😄. I'm sure my family would be quick to point out where this has failed! 🤣 But it does help.
So maybe, if you too are prone to seeing what others do wrong, it might help to mentally see if you sometimes fit into that spot too. To see if in any situation that might be you. It is a very humbling and curative thing to do. 😏
