One of the incorrect assumptions that people make when it comes to our thinking and how we respond to situations is:

**The activating event leads directly to emotional and behavioural consequences.**

This assumption overlooks the critical role of our beliefs, interpretations, and cognitive processes that mediate our responses to activating events. In reality, it is often our beliefs about the event that shape our emotional and behavioural responses, rather than the event itself leading to direct consequences.
