Assumptions often stem from preconceived notions or biases, which can result in unfair treatment or discrimination towards individuals or groups.

When we assume we know what someone else is thinking or feeling, we may not communicate effectively, leading to misunderstandings and conflicts.

If people feel that they are being judged or misunderstood, they may become less likely to trust us or share information with us.

When your mother or your partner say, “We need to talk”, most of the time we think we are going to have an argue with her that is the worst case scenario

Be aware of your own preconceived notions and beliefs that may influence your assumptions.

Check facts and information before accepting them as true. Don't rely solely on your assumptions or rumors.

Pay attention to what others are saying without interrupting or jumping to conclusions. Give them the space to fully express themselves

Your partner is quieter than usual one evening, and you assume they're upset with you. You may start an argument based on this assumption. Later, you find out they were simply tired or serious.

You experience some physical symptoms and immediately assume the worst, like a serious illness, based on internet research. You go to the doctor with anxiety, only to find out it's a minor issue that can be easily treated. Your assumption caused unnecessary worry and stress.
