This is just my impression but I would think that how long you have had the thought influences whether it is a belief or an assumption. Also the nature of it.
A core belief would tell you that you can not do the job because you have had a core belief telling you that due to past situations you have proved it, even if it is not so.
An assumption would be when you try something new with the preconceived notion because of the core belief that you will fail. I think that because an assumption is based on a core belief that it could be broken easier. If you started by assuming it could go either way you would have half a chance where as the core belief will spill a negative thought that stops you from trying. Just my thought. It depends on the individual. Attitude is going to play a large part in this. If you have a negative personality you will likely have negative assumptions.
Being Bipolar you will have both personalities depending on what phase you are in.
In addition to examining your core beliefs we’d like you to also spend some time identifying your core assumptions. Remember you assumptions are rules you live by.
There are a number of ways to get a better understanding of your assumptions. One way is to think about a specific situation in which you experienced some strong emotions and ask yourself what rules you have about those types of situations.
