1. Assume + Intent https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHar-vt1Xr0
Assuming the best in others doesn’t mean believing that everyone does the right thing all the time. It is a belief that everyone is doing the best they can, given their current thinking.

2. Notes:
Video – Opportunity to practice Assuming “negative” Intent…What was the receiver thinking? What was the linesman thinking?...
Cell Phone – Physical Therapist visit recently. As I was doing the exercises, he took out his cell phone. I thought “hmm…he’s not being here now” but about 10 seconds later he turned and showed me the coolest app that showed my musculature and why I was experiencing pain.
Pt Arm – Staff member shared an experience of a pt. who was a difficult stick and had other multiple stick marks. Her body language and facial expressions must have been negative because the pt. said, “I know what you are probably thinking. I give blood and plasma as much as I can to help feed my daughter and me.”
