Video Description
In this clip, I explore one of the biggest traps we fall into, confusing our feelings with facts. I break down how our brains are wired for survival, not happiness, and how that impacts the beliefs we form from childhood onward. I talk about the difference between core beliefs and emotional beliefs, why emotional states can distort our perception of reality, and how we can learn to believe better. You’ll also hear insights on how to distinguish knowledge from belief and why doing so is critical to personal growth. Join me as I unpack how we can navigate fear, self-doubt, and limiting beliefs by learning to separate feelings from facts and consciously reshape the way we think, believe, and act. This clip is from a keynote I did in 2022 for Ziglar Inc 🎧 Whether you’re feeling stuck or simply curious about how the mind works, this episode is for you.
