...the 4 agreements...

continued



#3 don't make assumptions



..the problem with making assumptions is..

we tend to believe they are truth!

..by making assumptions..we misunderstand..we take things personally..

& create a big drama..often for nothing!

the majority of sadness/drama in our lives..

..is from making assumptions and taking things personally!



..we only see what we want to see..

we only hear what we want to hear..

..we feel we have to justify everything..

to explain & understand everything so we feel safe..


..sometimes it doesn't even matter if its right or wrong..

as long as it feels ok??

(i don't think so)




..we make assumptions because we don't have the courage to ask questions..

..we make assumptions unconsciously because we think if someone loves us..

they should know better..


..when we believe something..we assume we are right to the point that..


...we will destroy relationships to defend our position..



..the easiest way to keep this third agreement
..is to STOP making assumptions!


..have the courage to ask questions..make communication clear!


..don't look at ..listen to.. or speak judgement..


don't assume anything..


another great principle to live by x
