Break free from limiting beliefs by not making assumptions from "summary" of The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz,Janet Mills
When we make assumptions, we are not seeking the truth. We are projecting our beliefs onto others, creating a distorted version of reality. These assumptions can limit our perception and create unnecessary suffering. By letting go of assumptions, we free ourselves from the constraints of our own minds. Every person has their own unique perspective, shaped by their experiences, beliefs, and values. When we assume we know what others are thinking or feeling, we are discounting their individuality and imposing our own judgments onto them. This can lead to misunderstandings, conflicts, and missed opportunities for genuine connection. Breaking free from limiting beliefs requires us to approach each situation with an open mind and a willingness to learn. Instead of jumping to conclusions, we can ask questions, seek clarification, and remain curious about the perspectives of others. By doing so, we can expand our understanding and cultivate more meaningful relationships. When we let go of assumptions, we create space for acceptance, empathy, and compassion. We recognize that everyone is entitled to their own truths and that our perceptions are only one piece of the puzzle. This shift in perspective allows us to release the grip of our limiting beliefs and embrace a more liberating way of being in the world. By practicing awareness and mindfulness in our interactions, we can break free from the cycle of assumption-making. We can choose to see each moment as an opportunity for growth, connection, and transformation. In doing so, we empower ourselves to live more authentically and harmoniously with others.
