“Everything turns on your assumptions about it, and that's on you. You can pluck out the hasty judgment at will, and like steering a ship around the point, you will find calm by seas, fair weather and a safe port."
- Marcus Aurelius, Meditations, 12.22
Assumptions can lead to misunderstandings, miscommunication, and reinforce stereotypes because they’re based on incomplete information.

Keep an open mind with everything that you deal with and don’t tunnel vision too quickly!
You are choosing to assume and must assume the consequences of your assumption.
