Assumptions are so common in the brown community.

They cause so much unnecessary damage in our relationships.

They certainly used to for me. Here is a common example I often experienced.

They don't return your call or are not there for you.

Based on that you feel they no longer care about you. Sometimes it's true unfortunately, but most of the time it's probably not.

We never know what is going on in someone else's life.

You may think they tell you everything, but they may have their reasons to hold back. Could be nothing to do with you.

When we make an assumptions based on an action or lack thereof we end up getting upset, resentful and hurt.

We fail to look at the full picture and just sit on our assumption.

This causes damage to the relationship that could have been easily prevented. More importantly, it causes emotional damage to ourselves.

Making an assumption is natural and sometimes automatic. You also have may have a legit reason to make an assumption based on past behavior.

But until we get the full picture, we will not only continue to damage our relationships but ourselves as well.

What if instead of jumping to an assumption, you could get the full picture?

In this episode I talk about how to get a better picture of what is going on with the person and the situation.

Getting the full picture, it not always easy and can be nerve racking but overtime you can develop this skill and turn it into a habit.

Don’t sit on the assumption! Get the full picture! In this episode, I talk about how you can better get the full picture.

Once you do this, you're relationships will be more fulfilling and you will understand people intentions more cleary.

Don't let your most important relationships get damaged!
