Key Takeaways from This Episode:

A claim is a statement presented as fact.

“We would seek evidence to support or contradict the claim.”

An assumption is an untested belief that shapes decisions.

“An assumption is a belief or idea that is taken for granted without proof.”

A hypothesis is a testable statement. We like these.

“The act of formulating a hypothesis is what’s going to help you get super specific and relevant.”
