<p>Today we talk about the importance of OVERCOMING your own NEGATIVE ASSUMPTIONS. It’s such a dangerous aspect of our life that can easily snowball out of control and be detrimental to the quality of our lives if we leave it unchecked. We define an <u>assumptions</u> as the act of coming to a conclusion without evidence to back it up. In this talk, we cover specific examples of how negative assumption can changed in three aspects that include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Personal Relationships </li>
<li>Business Relationships</li>
<li>Learning Capabilities </li>
</ul>
<p>We also share a concept (F.A.S.T.) created by Jim Kwik about improving one’s learning ability that can make a huge difference in challenging the assumptions on how we view learning. </p>
<ul>
<li><strong>F -</strong> <strong>FORGET</strong> what you already know / forget your limitations / forget everything around you (7 bits max) </li>
<li><strong>A -</strong> <strong>ACTIVE</strong> participation: education is not consumption but rather creation. Grab knowledge don’t be spoon fed knowledge (take notes: left side = capture notes / right side = creative notes) </li>
<li><strong>S -</strong> <strong>STATE</strong> mood of brain and body (we don’t have to react to the environment, be the thermostat not the thermometer)</li>
<li><strong>T -</strong> <strong>TEACH</strong> can you explain to someone what you’ve learned?</li>
</ul>
<p>“<strong>He who knows</strong>, <strong>does not speak</strong>. <strong>He</strong> who speaks, <strong>does not know</strong>.” - Lao Tzu</p>
<p><strong>Bad habits are subconscious manifestations of your negative assumptions</strong></p>
