Why is it that people judge other people based on their strengths and weaknesses, when it is known to all of us that no one is good at everything and we all have different talents and strong and weak points in life ?

All of us are not perfect. But someone or the other is better than us, who can judge us based on their experience and the wisdom they have gained.
Assuming that there no one perfect in this world, if everyone stops correcting the mistakes and weakness of others, trust me the world will not be good.
You don’t have to be perfect to correct someone or point out weak point of someone.
A mother need not be perfect to correct the weak point of a child. There could be two reason why does this:
1. She doesn’t want her child to do the same mistake she did
2. Her experience and wisdoms tells her that the child is not in a position to understand life. She knows better than the child and can point out the mistake or the weak point of the child.
Don’t you think in every walk of life we do judge people. Without judging, you are not deciding on any kind of relationship including friendship. You even judge a company before joining. You judge a school before joining.
You want to judge someone before you want to become close to someone.
It is a natural character of a human to judge things around them.
A person who comments or points at your mistake is the person who cares for you. Instead questioning why they judge, we need to analyze what they said.
We need to see whether we really have that weakness not trying to see whether that person has the same weakness or more.
Any one tells me anything, I respect it and analyze it and correct myself to be a better person.
An advice, suggestion or scholding is actually a blessing disguise. If you think it is coming free of cost and has no value, you are losing some thing which you don’t know what it is.
No one is perfect and obviously you should understand you are also not perfect. If others don’t correct it or not, whether others have some weakness or not …. What stops us correct correcting our weakness?
If someone is going to judge me, I will be happy and open heartedly hear their criticism about me. That is how you become mature in life.
We should comment on others, why we should not. Instead we should not keep in within our heart and act in life.
Who knows, people who judge you might be really doing a good judgment on you. You may not agree with them, but their judgment can be correct. It may not be ok for you now, but in future you might agree and appreciate their judgment.

It's just a way to feel powerful. Judge people and figuring out their strengths and weakness helps the person doing the judging confirm some suspicion they might have able the person's personality.
of course the person doing the judging knows that they are not perfect. it's just something to do to pass the time. it's really not that important to figure other's out. they might be right or wrong. who cares?

The bigger a group we belong to, the more secure and safe we feel and by finding faults in others we are actually bringing them down in to our group and increasing it's strength.Though the approach may look like an act of self righteousness but the inner desire is have most people worst than us or at the best,at par with us and not superior to us.For most of us the best example of a perfect human being is "ourselves" and no doubt about it,what so ever.

To make comments on other people's weaknesses is exactly what those people deny in themselves and don't even know it!
In fact, it has nothing with others, but solely based on themselves.They're the weak and judgmental.
Take care!

There is no harm in analysing other people, based on their strengths and weaknesses, (even though we may not be perfect ourselves).
But we need not be judgemental about it.
After all, one doesn't have to know how to lay an (perfect!) egg to say whether it is good or bad!

It is like in school, to pick on someone that is not the average or top kids. It makes us feel bigger and better than someone else. Instead we need to be kind to someone that is not the norm. It might make a difference in that person's life. We need to uplift someone, and make them feel like they are someone, also.

Because its easy to point it out in others and distract the attention from our own.
