Let me pass on it. Or maybe you hold on to relationships or ideas or identities that no longer serve you anymore. Because your brain tells you that it's safer to stick with what's familiar than to go out and to face the unknown. Or you might avoid romantic relationships because your last one broke your heart.

Even though you consciously want to find love, like you consciously want to really find someone you can settle down with. That's 5% of your mind, your conscious mind. Your subconscious, which is 95% of what's going on, is trying to protect you from that pain again. So it's like, no, no, no, don't trust that guy. No, no, no, don't trust him. Nope, he looks a lot like the last one.

Oh, red flag, red flag. And so even though you really want to consciously get into a relationship, it can hold you back from getting into one. Do you see the problem? You have to understand that what kept you safe in the past can keep you stuck now. You aren't actually seeing real reality. You're seeing a version of reality, your perception, that is shaped by your history.

So how do you break the cycle? You want to start to try to test everything like you're a scientist. Now, obviously, there's some scientists in the world that are paid by really big companies to say what those really big companies want them to say. That's not the type of scientist I'm talking about. A good scientist doesn't believe what they want to be true. What they do is they test it.

And they try to, and this is the key part, they try to disprove their own ideas, not confirm them. They want to try to disprove their ideas. If they can't disprove their own ideas, then their idea must have been true. So that is what you must do. And I think everyone in this world needs to hear this. Just because you think something and you believe something does not make it true.

And so you have to think like cognitive behavioral therapy. They say test the validity of your thoughts. You need to get better at challenging yourself versus blindly just believing in yourself, in your thoughts, in your emotions, in your feelings. Most people I understand do the opposite. For years, I did the opposite. They only look for the information that confirms what they already believe.

That's the thing that's really crazy about this world. That's what's really causing so many people to go on one side or the other side is that they're only looking for the information that confirms what they already believe. It's called confirmation bias versus going, well, I believe this. Let me have a conversation with someone who believes something completely different.

And we will do it all of the time. If you think, for instance, your boss is unfair, then you'll only notice the moments that prove that he's unfair. And you'll ignore all of the times where he's been reasonable or been great. If you believe that you're bad with money, you'll focus on every financial mistake that you've made. You'll ignore all of the times where you hinted things well.
