“When you feel that others are lacking and failing ....first assess the skill, style, quality, results, mindset, support, professionalism and spirit with which you yourself play the game.”

Meaning

This reads as a reminder to turn criticism inward before judging anyone else. It suggests that our view of other people is often shaped by our own standards, habits, and blind spots. It lands in a workplace dispute, a team project, or a family tension, when blaming others feels easier than checking one’s own role.
