A person with high assumption is a person with high hypothetical ability but low Verification Power. Instead of “You are assuming too much,” it would be better to give feedback such as “You have a great ability to create hypotheses, so let’s get into the habit of verifying them with facts. https://twitter.com/dkatsura/status/1295531649325658112?s=21 This is a good paraphrase

  • Some people ask questions like, “How to create a hypothesis?” or “[How do we generate ideas?
  • If you don’t like this “Baselessness.” or don’t feel secure that it could be so, or don’t have the self-assurance to trust your own ideas, or are insecure, you avoid
    • [The rationale is an afterthought.
    • If you ask for basis early on, the idea breaks down.
  • I really like your comment about taking a positive and further extending a trait that is often perceived negatively as “assuming too much.”
