We have the tendency to make assumptions? Why do we think we are the boss and understand what really happened or what is really going to happen?
Assumptions in my opinion are based on our wisdom and experience of our reality (our dream) we are living in our life. Sure, your mom KNEW without checking that you were the one who ate the last cookie or that you didn't clean your room. This is based on your mom knowing your habits AND, "She is your MOTHER!" But, you are not the MOM to others out there in the world. And, just because we as Americans share the same values doesn't mean we all like "STEAK."
Honestly, I was embarrassed a couple of times of accusing someone of something that they had nothing to do with. I just saw them with that same person more than twice so I asserted that they "MUST BE!" AND, even more, troubling I told someone and they told someone, and so on. I hurt that person. AND, I hurt myself and my credibility. I really felt so badly and I realized that I needed my word to be "IMPECCABLE" (REMEMBER THAT?)
Do you see how all these agreements work together in unison keeping our side of the street clean? I am a much better person because I "ASK" before I "JUDGE" and before I "SPEAK". The serendipity of this agreement is that my friends come to me more for advice and counsel. I remind them to pause and to not make assumptions but to find out the "FACTS" and the "TRUTH."
Take a listen to this short episode and challenge yourself to stop "MAKING ASSUMPTIONS."
