assumptions continually in a typical day, and
many of them are hidden. Clearly this is an
important potential obstacle of clear or critical
thinking. Stephen Covey recognized this when he
said, We simply assume that the way we see
things is the way they really are or the way they
should be. And our attitudes and behaviors grow
out of these (ThinkExist.com). Marshall McLuhan
called us to an ongoing review of our
assumptions Most of our assumptions have
outlived their usefulness (ThinkExist.com).
