You’ve made assumptions.
Plenty of them.
There was some missing information.
You filled in the gap.
You interpreted.
Made connections.
But incorrectly so.
How did that happen?
The connections were erroneous.
The interpretation off.
The gap inappropriately filled.
Check your assumptions.
Ask questions.
Ask more questions.
Test old information.
Take in new information.
Remove the need for assumptions at all.
