#120 - ASSUMPTIONS are dangerous

in business & life do not make assumptions

Assumption is  -"a thing that is accepted as true or as certain to happen, without proof." 

We make assumptions, when we don’t have all the information

As time passes most people start to believe what they assumed 

Evolution is still happening  

New discovering are still being made 

New information is being released on all topics 

Make assumptions when you have to  

But be willing to revisit them 

Be willing to retest them  

Prime example I can think of is

People assumed the world was flat 

then they discovered is round 

People assumed we are the only galaxy in the universe   

Then they discovered there are 100 billion galaxies 

What dictates our assumptions is information

Information is  evolving and changing

So never be stubborn about your assumptions

Put aside your ego 

Test what you assumed  

Take the pragmatic approach  

You need to be pragmatic if you want to achieve your goals
