Comments on: Are Assumptions Crippling Your Success? http://www.stevebedwell.com/blog/critical-thinking/assumptions-general-motors/ Enhance Your Critical Thinking, Emotional Intelligence And Motivation Tue, 31 Jan 2012 19:50:34 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc hourly 1 By: Dr. Steve Bedwell http://www.stevebedwell.com/blog/critical-thinking/assumptions-general-motors/comment-page-1/#comment-15 Dr. Steve Bedwell Wed, 10 Oct 2007 18:17:20 +0000 http://www.stevebedwell.com/blog/assumptions-general-motors/#comment-15 <p>Thanks Lonnie, I absolutely agree that we're creatures of habit. I've literally just got back into my hotel room after a breakout session with a wonderful group of people from the Michigan Healthcare Financial Management Association. One of the points I illustrated was just how predictable we all are. The problem is, when we see things in the same way as everybody else, we cripple our success. We won't find buried treasure digging in the same places as everybody else. That's why learning how to flex our Perspective Power is so important. When we change how we see things, we really do see things change. Thanks, once again, for your comment...keep 'em coming! Steve</p>

You are so correct about making assumptions. We are creatures of habit and could be considered "lazy" by using our past track record in our memory bank to new situations and projects. I have a bad habit of doing that very thing. Assumptions make us lose perspective on new and fresh ideas that could be applied to similar but new projects. Thank you for your valuable insights.</p>
