1-Minuten-Habit für 18. November
Write down one assumption you made today and question it
Warum dieses Habit hilft
Identifying and challenging assumptions prevents automatic thinking errors that limit possibilities and create unnecessary stress.
This practice builds mental flexibility—the cognitive superpower that allows you to adapt to change and see opportunities where others see obstacles.

Kurz erklärt
We operate on autopilot most of the time, making hundreds of unconscious assumptions about people, situations, and ourselves.
Bringing just one of these assumptions into conscious awareness creates space for new perspectives, better decisions, and more authentic connections.
Was dahinter steckt
So kannst du sofort starten
- Notice when you feel frustrated, confused, or stuck today
- Identify the assumption underlying that feeling
- Write it down clearly: 'I assumed that...'
- Ask: What evidence supports this? What contradicts it?
- Consider alternative explanations or perspectives
Wie du das Habit anpasst
Wenn du beruflich viel zu tun hast
Challenge one assumption before important meetings—'I assume they'll reject this idea' becomes 'What if they're excited by it?'
Wenn du Kinder hast
Help children identify assumptions about school or friendships—teaches emotional intelligence and problem-solving
Wenn du studierst oder in der Ausbildung bist
Question assumptions about difficult subjects—'I'm bad at math' might become 'I haven't found the right learning approach yet'

💬 Deine Erfolgsgeschichten
I was convinced my new coworker didn't like me because she rarely spoke in meetings. When I finally questioned this assumption, I realized she was just introverted and thoughtful. The next day, I asked for her opinion specifically, and she shared brilliant insights I'd been missing. Now we collaborate regularly, and I've learned to question my assumptions about quiet people. That one questioned assumption transformed a strained relationship into a valuable partnership.
