Are you a fault finder?

we are all fault finders but i am not someone who finds faults for my gain. human psychology is so correct and it is so true. The behavior pattern of humans are sometimes so predictable. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead

It is hard to admit to being wrong. SOme people's egoes won't let them admit to it and becomes harder as time goes by. But people will find that once they admit to being wrong and talk about it they will feel better and it will become easier the next time it comes up.

No. It is not "fine to scrutinize other people without limit, aiming for personal gain". Not many people want to be around a person like that. It's also a way to lose friends. On the other hand, there's nothing wrong with wanting to be around people who share the same interests as you, people who are as intelligent as you. When you are around less knowledgeable people than you, there is a tendency to get into arguments and fights. The same goes with when you have people who are ignorant in something. I am an ex teacher. I had young relative girls who supposedly heard something about birth control which was incorrect. In my race, ignorance is one of the reasons we have a high AIDS and pregnancy rates. When I tried to correct the girls, I got into an argument with another relative who thought it was okay for the girls to think like they do. It hurts me that ignorance seems to be okay. Thus, I feel that you scrutinize others for "their" benefits. But if they don't want to listen, there is nothing you can do about it. When Noah warned the folks about the coming flood, that's all he could do was warn them. He did the best he could do. There is no shame in that. The same goes for all of us.

That I think, is such an insensitive attitude. No people has the right to degrade another just so he makes himself feel superior over them.

My mom says I am like this. But im not doing it for any self gain. I just believe that criticism helps!

Nope I am certainly not! :D I am against and will always be against to how people- instead of working on their on tasks, spends more time and effort on watching how other do their work. I believe even If you're a superior/senior, yes you call on your inferiors attention in case of errors- but it'll be better, instead of pulling that person down because of the error, help him with your knowledge so he/she can be better on things that he lacks ability of. If that person becomes better, he/she will always remember you and return gratitude. I have always adore bosses that are approachable, those who do not watch your actions but instead guide.. Your personal gain will not just depend on finding fault of others, I think if you help them fix their difficulties- you can have gain from them too :D I got an experience of some bosses at our office which are indeed fault finders too. Sad to say, the person they are watching over is a friend of mine. That person I know is really skillful on his field too. But because of being on the priority "watchlist", my friend can't work properly anymore.. Being tense and uncomfortable. So that's when I've come up to this thought that became my friends favorite quote that time. :D "If your success relies on how you plot others to fail, then can you really call yourself successful?" :)

I did an experiment one time, it was writing a letter to someone that annoyed me or made me angry and tell them exactly what it was that bothered me about them. After the letter was finished, you don't send it out. You change the name to your own and then put it in an envelope and send it to yourself. Most of the time, the letter you read to yourself, from yourself is exactly what bothers you about yourself. So when someone sees a fault in you, they are mirroring their own faults but don't want to readily admit it.

I think it comes from people who want to bully other people so we won't look at their faults, because we all have them. Usually a person like that is miserable to be around because you have to walk on egg shells when they are on a tirade. You cannot put other people down to make yourself better than them.

well in terms of work, i really dream of becoming an Auditor, i want to be a fault finder, and want to correct whats wrong with other people's work, scrutinize on anything and very particular in minute details, but i failed to coz i shifted to another course when i was in college. it is fine to scrutinize other people if it is in your scope of work, but not for other reasons..

hi, i think people should not scrutinize other people without limit just to have a personal gain in the company,i can compare this to the crab-mentality, because they are the same way of aiming something,they just pulled down the person just to make have a gain or promotion.

I would not say that I am a fault finder. Rather I would call myself a critical analyst. I tend to observe and analyze the behavior people have. But I will not criticize them negatively and I will only give advises when they ask me to. It is not a good thing to scrutinize people in order for some personal benefit or to use the authorization or power that one has the wrong way. We need to respect each other and help one another in improving ourselves.

I think we are all fault finders to be honest even if we wont admit it. I know I do a lot of times, I meet someone and point out the faults then point out the goods.
