One of the incorrect assumptions that people often make is: **The activating event leads directly to emotional and behavioural consequences.**
This assumption oversimplifies the process of how we respond to situations by suggesting a direct cause-and-effect relationship between events and our feelings or behaviors. In reality, our beliefs, interpretations, and context significantly shape our emotional and behavioral responses to activating events. Thus, two people may react very differently to the same event based on their individual beliefs and perspectives.
