Most people have no problem assuming the worst of people - just look at the state of our world! But assuming the best of people instead requires discipline.
Every one of us has presuppositions and those presuppositions exist in our thinking all the time.
The word presupposition derives from the verb “presuppose,” meaning, “to suppose or assume beforehand; take for granted in advance”.
There are so many areas presuppositions can destroy us, even in the way we treat other people. Assuming evil and false motives in others reveals our own presupposition more so than reality.
