What you see is not reality
Human beings, pattern-seekers and meaning-makers that we are, tend to make assumptions very easily.
We see something and then extrapolate from it (without even noticing that we are doing so!)

Instead, shift to curiosity: ask questions, consider what you might not be seeing, and be open to learning from them.
