Assumptions re-enforce stereotypes, lead to missed opportunities, and grave mistakes. They are hard to avoid making, but sometimes it is best to confront an issue head on and learn the truth before you take action on your assumptions.
It is also good to dispel people of their assumptions when you suspect or know they are wrong. It can be hard in the short-term but is generally best in the long wrong. When you do not have assumptions getting in the way, friendships and business partnerships can grow.
