Good morning, happy Wavy Wednesday in the Year of the ZAO: Day 57.

We often assume that others see the world as we do. That they think like us, feel like us, and judge like us. But in reality, these assumptions create unnecessary misunderstandings and self-imposed limitations.

Today’s lesson from The Four Agreements reminds us: Don’t Make Assumptions – Be Yourself Around Others.

When we assume, we project our fears onto others, hesitating to be our true selves. But what if we let go of that fear? What if we communicated openly instead of assuming? What if we embraced who we are without worrying about judgment?

Being yourself is a form of freedom—one that allows deeper connections and clearer understanding.

So today, take a moment to reflect: Where in your life are assumptions holding you back? Challenge yourself to ask questions, clarify your thoughts, and engage with others without fear.
