Assumptions: The Root Cause to Great Suffering.

Socrates once said, “The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.” So, ask yourself. Do I really know anything with absolute certainty? Chances are, if you’re honest, you will discover that there is very little, if anything, that you know with absolute certainty. As a result, we go through life making assumptions, forming hypotheses, and experimenting. We construct entire belief systems out of assumptions, and then we play by the rules to fit in. These mental constructs and rules are often called paradigms. We then attempt to solve problems inside paradigms or boxes when it is often the hidden boxes that are the problem. We go to war over underlying assumptions and ignorance. We struggle with health issues, career tracks, and financial well-being due to flawed paradigms. We make poor choices in all aspects of life because of limiting beliefs. Put simply, we get in our own way. In this episode, John will offer tips on how to uncover assumptions and challenge them with wisdom and discernment. He will also share strategies on how to use assumptions to our advantage. A shift at this level can change everything.
