When We Assume

Assumptions are similar to what I like to call “interpretations of or expectations from the past.”

They also often live in the space of incomplete information… where we write stories that we believe to be the truth; even though we might not have any real clue about WTF is actually going on. Ha!

Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we’re taking a look at assumptions, how we make them, who we make them about and what their effect is on us, others and the world around us.

Assumptions lack curiosity and imagination.

They don’t ask questions or seek to understand, because they come from the land of - “I already know”. They’re rigid and don’t allow space for the possibility of what could actually be.

Instead they come from a place of predetermined outcomes - where how it can be - has already been decided from predictions based on what has been.

Today with this episode, I invite you to create a little more room for curiosity, creativity, communication and compassion because those are the things that actually create connection!
