I also think this is important.
Not judgement by GOD - that's your faith.
But judgement being a significant factor in determining behaviour - this is important to me, as well.
I simply do not wait for that judgement to come from GOD after I die.
I allow for that judgement to come from the people around me - the ones my actions affect.
I very much agree with the idea of self-retrospection and in fact it is a significant duty in all three of the Abrahamic/Masoretic religions.
In Christianity specifically it is the Rite of Confession where you are charged to honestly evaluate your behavior, acknowledge your failures, attempt to amend any harm caused and honestly consciously try not to repeat those errors.
Judgement is not only after you die but should be an ongoing repetitive part of daily life.
