Life Lessons #3 Don’t Make Assumptions

The flip side of not taking anything personally is to not assume you know what’s going on in other people’s heads, to not assume you know the motivations for their actions. Just as their reality doesn’t reflect your reality, your life is not theirs. Give people the benefit of the doubt.

Not making assumptions is hard, we all do it, including myself. It is hard to pull back sometimes and put yourselves in someones shoes, to understand what is happening in their life, at that time. The best policy is to give people the benefit of the doubt, to err on the side of positive thinking. Attempt to always remain positive.
