6. 🤫😮💨 Assumptions -- Rumors
What do you think you know but it's an assumption?
What do you think is a common assumption that has become the common belief but it's worth exploring if it's true? When we often start thinking or exploring a concept or talking about a topic, we all have certain knowledge and perceptions about. Sometimes, those are just assumptions that we have heard or directly assumed as true. This happens to everyone, but what we are trying to avoid is collectively creating a list of the potential assumptions we are making. We also like to call them rumors so that we evaluate those further to avoid building a solution based on assumptions.
