At any time when you feel that you are smart and other person is stupid, then follow,
Byron Katie's method of self inquiry.
Ask yourself the following for questions:
1. Is it true that Joe Smoe is an idiot?
2. Is it absolutely true that Joe Smoe is an idiot?
3. Who would I be without that thought?
4. How is the opposite of the statement true? Ex. How is Joe Smoe smart? How am I an idiot?
Then come up with examples of how Joe is smart and think of the stupid things you yourself have done. You will be surprised to find that our judgments of others is really about ourselves.
