Assumptions

Critical thinking is a habit.

It is possible to train the subconscious to see the assumptions and break there to call conscious attention to it.

You just have to question enough assumptions to make a habit of it.

We do all sorts of assumptions, all the time.

Here I go.

That you have to turn the water tap to max to get a satisfying shower.
That traffic is always a bad thing.
The ancients were somehow different as human beings from us.

That emotional security can be achieved through external means.
That you have forever on this world.
That you have all the time in the world to fix your stuff.
That there must be an afterlife.
That the show must go on.
That people like you think like you. (projection!)
That things have to be the way they are.

Your turn!
