There are two common ways this habit increases people's difficulties.
過早下結論會通過兩條途徑為你制造麻煩。
First, they assume that they know what is going to happen, so they stop paying attention and act on their assumption instead. Human beings are lousy fortune-tellers.
第一是,你會認為自己已經了解所有的事情的發展,所以不再重視這件事情,而按照自己假設的發展方式操作事情。
Most of what they assume is wrong. That makes the action wrong too.
可惜人類并不是一種會算命的種類,所以大部分的假設都是錯誤的,這樣也導致的事情常常失敗
The second aspect of this habit is playing the mind-reader and assuming you know why people do what they do or what they're thinking. Wrong again, big time. More relationships are destroyed by this particular kind of stupidity than by any other.
第二是,你會猜測別人的想法并且會做出假設,同樣的,這些假設通常也是錯誤的。而且這些愚蠢的假設也導致了你與他人的關系被破壞。
