Deep dives
Questioning assumptions
When we make assumptions about a situation, we are essentially guessing and asserting our opinion as truth. Acting upon our assumptions without confirming them can lead to trouble. To avoid holding on too tightly to our assumptions, it is important to be humble, assume that we could be wrong, and be curious. For example, instead of assuming that a friend is upset with us, we can ask them directly if there is something we did to cause their distress. By questioning our assumptions and seeking clarification, we can make better judgments and improve the situation.
