23-Assumptions

In this week's episode of Next Level Living, we get into the negative impact assumptions have on all of us. Assumptions, which have no basis in fact, can create a hostile atmosphere for all involved. Not to confuse the two, there is a difference between presumption and assumption. Where the presumption is based on fact, the assumption is based on feelings. Learning to identify and separate the two is what it takes to experience Next Level Living.
