2. Reality Test Our Assumptions - Get constructive criticism and dissenting opinions. Consider the possibility that your assumptions are wrong and the opposite is true.

4. Prepare to Be Wrong - Think about and plan for what happens if your decision is wrong. Be ready to change course quickly if the situation dictates.
