we've all heard it ... assumption makes an ass out of you and me.

and i agree ... finally.

as·sume [uh-soom]: take to be the case or to be true; accept without verification or proof.

one of the goals i have for my own character development is to assume less and ask questions more. it's amazing how much more efficient and relationally intelligent you can be when you stop assuming how people are going to treat you based on past experiences or the perceptions others have of the situation based on their own assumptions :)

i kind of like it.
