Big Idea

The argument in one line.

Your life is the end product of a fixed causal chain that starts with your beliefs, so getting rich is less about tactics than about identifying and installing the exact beliefs a wealthy version of you would already hold.

Who This Is For

Read if. Skip if.

READ IF YOU ARE…
  • An aspiring or early-stage online business owner who keeps failing to take action (cold calls, sales calls, outreach) and suspects the block is mental rather than tactical.
  • A coach, consultant, or agency owner who wants a first-principles model of mindset they can teach to their own clients.
  • Anyone who has tried affirmations or 'think positive' advice, found it hollow, and wants a mechanistic explanation of why belief change actually works.
  • Someone willing to sit through a dense, repetitive, philosophy-heavy lecture to get one durable mental model rather than a quick hack.
SKIP IF…
  • You came for concrete money-making tactics — this module is pure mindset theory and explicitly defers the 'how to reprogram' mechanics to later videos.
  • You dislike heavy repetition and long abstract detours; the same ideas are restated many times over three-plus hours.
  • You are allergic to a coaching sales pitch — the video is a funnel into the creator's paid and free programs.
TL;DR

The full version, fast.

The video argues life follows a strict ladder: reality comes from your actions, actions from decisions, decisions from perceived options, options from thoughts, and thoughts from your paradigm, which is nothing but the sum of your beliefs, which are nothing but stored experiences. Beliefs are modeled as scales weighted by 'rocks' (experiences), where emotionally-charged experiences carry disproportionate weight, and they harden through confirmation-bias feedback loops. Evolution built beliefs as a compression system that maps reality so the brain can survive efficiently, which is why we defend beliefs even when they make us broke. The practical unlock: judge your beliefs not as morally right or wrong but by alignment — factual alignment with objective reality for knowledge, and goal alignment for identity and judgment. Let your goal, not your ego, decide what you must believe, then install those beliefs.

Chapters

Where the time goes.

00:00 – 03:30

01 · Cold open & pitch

Talking-head intro; $40M claim, free 25-page PDF, and two description links (paid VIP academy at 90% off, free Skool program).

03:30 – 15:00

02 · Omniscience recap

Recaps the prior module: objective vs subjective reality, six dimensions, and the three belief buckets (knowledge, judgment, self-image) that compose worldview, identity and paradigm.

15:00 – 28:20

03 · Belief conditioning

Born tabula rasa; only psychological and genetic loading (e.g. MAOA warrior gene) bias you, and neither is deterministic. Talent is mostly conditioning.

28:20 – 56:40

04 · Belief structure (the scale)

Every belief is a scale of true vs false weighted by experience-rocks; knowledge is binary, judgment/self-image are graded; beliefs exist in equal-and-opposite pairs; emotional experiences weigh far more.

56:40 – 1:23:20

05 · Feedback loops

Confirmation bias as an amplification loop; you act out beliefs even self-destructively; repetition stacks rocks exponentially, hardening beliefs over time.

1:23:20 – 1:56:40

06 · Belief memory utility

Evolutionary rationale: the brain compresses experiences into belief-statements to save energy and shrink the skull, then discards the source experiences.

1:56:40 – 2:28:20

07 · Reality cartography

Beliefs form an invisible map you navigate life by; the brain trusts it because you are alive, and defends it regardless of consequences.

2:28:20 – 2:48:20

08 · Macro & micro paradigms

Components you invest time in accrue more beliefs and dominate your paradigm; paradigms nest fractally (the Socrates-lens example).

2:48:20 – 3:18:20

09 · Right, wrong & alignment

Factual alignment for knowledge beliefs, goal alignment for identity/judgment; let your goal (not ego) decide what to believe, then close the gap to your goal reality.

3:18:20 – 3:25:42

10 · Recap & sign-off

Runs the eight-section agenda back, teases the next video on actually changing beliefs, soft-closes on EasyGrow.

Atomic Insights

Lines worth screenshotting.

  • Your life is downstream of a fixed chain: reality <- actions <- decisions <- perceived options <- thoughts <- paradigm <- beliefs <- experiences.
  • A belief is a scale: experiences are rocks stacked toward true or false, and its strength is just how the rocks are piled.
  • Beliefs exist in pairs, so every experience that confirms one belief automatically denies its opposite to the same intensity.
  • One emotionally-charged experience can outweigh dozens of ordinary ones and flip a belief instantly.
  • You act out your beliefs even against your own interest: believe you are bad at sales and you will unconsciously sabotage the call to prove it.
  • You cannot hold your current belief systems and your goal at the same time; the beliefs that produced your current life are the ones blocking the new one.
  • The brain deletes the experiences that formed a belief once the belief solidifies, which is why you hold convictions you can no longer explain.
  • Beliefs are an evolutionary compression tool: 'orange berries are poisonous' replaces the memory of a dozen deaths to save brain energy.
  • You navigate life by an invisible map made of beliefs, and your brain trusts that map simply because you are still alive.
  • Having a map does not mean the map is accurate; a wrong belief-map gets you lost the same way a wrong paper map does.
  • Whatever component of reality you spend the most time on accumulates the most beliefs and dominates how you see everything.
  • Judgment and self-image beliefs have no objective right or wrong; they are only right or wrong relative to your goal.
  • Stop letting your ego decide what to believe and let your goal decide: ask what a person who already achieved it would have to believe.
  • There is latency between adopting the right beliefs and reality catching up, so alignment feels slow before it compounds.
  • Talent is mostly conditioning, not birthright: Mozart started at two and Branson built billions while dyslexic.
Takeaway

Change the belief and the behavior follows.

WHAT TO LEARN

Your results are the last link in a chain that starts with belief, so the highest-leverage work is auditing which beliefs you hold and re-aligning them to the outcome you actually want.

  • Treat your current life as evidence of your current beliefs; if the results are bad, the beliefs that produced them need replacing, not defending.
  • Model each belief as a scale weighted by past experiences, and notice that a single emotionally intense experience can shift it faster than years of small ones.
  • Watch for self-sabotage: when you avoid or botch an action, check whether a hidden belief is steering you to prove itself right.
  • Understand that beliefs harden through repetition, so the older a limiting belief is the more deliberate practice it takes to unwind, but age never makes it impossible.
  • Stop asking whether a belief feels true and start asking whether it is aligned with your goal; adopt the belief the person who already succeeded would hold.
  • Expect a lag between adopting new beliefs and seeing new results, and keep stacking confirming experiences through that gap instead of quitting.
  • Separate factual alignment (get your picture of what exists to match reality) from goal alignment (choose identity beliefs that serve the outcome), and work on both.
  • Remember this is a diagnostic, not the fix; the actual reprogramming requires building new experiences on purpose, which the creator defers to later material.
Glossary

Terms worth knowing.

Paradigm
The complete set of a person's beliefs, which acts like a pair of glasses every observation passes through. It is made of a worldview (knowledge plus judgment beliefs) and an identity (self-image beliefs).
Knowledge belief
A belief about what exists, before any judgment or identity is attached. Treated as binary, either fully true or fully false, e.g. 'there is a chair over there.'
Judgment belief
A belief about what something you know exists is like, e.g. 'that tree is tall.' It sits on a scale of intensity rather than being binary.
Self-image belief
A belief about yourself in relation to a thing, signaled by words like I, my, we, or our, e.g. 'I am good at sales.'
Tabula rasa
Latin for 'blank slate.' The claim that you are born with no beliefs or paradigm, only two dormant biases: psychological loading and genetic loading.
Confirming vs denying experience
A confirming experience supports a belief you already hold; a denying experience contradicts it. Confirming one belief always denies its paired opposite.
Reality cartography
The idea that beliefs compress reality into a navigable map, which the brain follows to make decisions and ensure survival.
Factual alignment
How closely a knowledge belief matches objective reality. The goal is to move your subjective picture of what exists as close to the truth as possible.
Goal alignment
The standard for judging identity and judgment beliefs: a belief is 'right' if it supports reaching your goal and 'wrong' if it blocks it, independent of morality.

00:00Hey, everyone. Charlie Morgan here. And in the next three and a half hours, I'm gonna show you everything I've learned about reprogramming my brain to get as rich as possible as fast as possible.
00:10I'm 28 years old, and I've made $40,000,000 online using exactly what I'm about to teach you in this video. So what I've got for you here is a 25 page PDF that will show you everything you need to know about reprogramming your brain to make a lot of money.
00:25Now two things for you. This resource, alongside hundreds of other resources, are available for you to download completely for free by clicking the second link in the description. The first link in the description is basically all of my paid stuff without having to pay me.
00:39So I've made $40,000,000. I've compiled everything I've learned doing that into a series of mentorships and programs, and they're now available to you, um, without paying me. We've partnered with a $2,500,000,000 company who will cover your access to my paid stuff if you so want to.
00:52You might be brand new to this. You might think I'm a scammer and a horrible person. Just check this video out and you can make a decision afterwards, but both those links are available to you.
01:00I think you'll like both of them. So I will see you on either of those. But without further ado, let's get started with the video into subjugating reality.
01:07Hey, everyone. Charlie Morgan here and welcome to subjugating reality. So in this video, we're gonna be talking a lot more about belief systems and how these things actually work.
01:18Now subjugating means to sort of bring something into your control or to subdue something. And when you when you understand how belief systems work and how your paradigm forms and how to change them and, you know, how to believe the right thing and not believe the wrong thing, etcetera etcetera, reality truly becomes well, becomes subjugatable.
01:36You can completely put it under your will and you really can design your dream life and design exactly what you wanna get out of reality and go and get it. And so in this video, we're gonna be talking about how to do that and we're gonna be talking about how beliefs work, more specifically how they sort of form.
01:54We're gonna be talking about the right beliefs, the wrong beliefs, etcetera. So let's get into it. So first of all, we're just gonna summarize what we learned in the last video achieving omniscience.
02:03Then we're gonna talk about belief conditioning, belief structure, belief feedback loops, belief memory utility, reality cartography, macro and micro paradigms, and right and wrong.
02:15And so we've got quite a lot to cover in this video and once again, I appreciate that this is a lot of information to take in. You know, you're doing just fine so far. Just keep paying attention, stay locked in.
02:25You're gonna have to watch these videos many times over to really comprehend what I'm saying, But for now, let's get into it and let's get started. So welcome to subjugating reality. In this video, we'll be taking a mega deep dive into belief systems and how they work.
02:39We're gonna build on what you've learned so far about paradigms, perspectives, and experience, and make things really clear. And this resource will explain how your brain works, the nature of right and wrong, and so much more. So hold on to your hats.
02:49It's a big one. Okay? So let's just start by recapping achieving omniscience.
02:54If you haven't watched achieving omniscience yet, which is, you know, the first video in this training, then you need to go and do that now. And the other thing as well is that if you haven't watched the the week one videos, you know, Genesis videos, the first the first videos in in this training, I could lose later axiom, six figure fusion, iterative renaissance, etcetera.
03:12If you haven't watched those, then you need to go and watch them before you continue with this mindset module because all of the information in this mindset module and, you know, with this reality conquering module is subjected to and based on the stuff that you learn in week one. Okay?
03:27Now, I'm gonna help you summarize achieving omissions. Just so you know, the summary will not suffice standalone.
03:32If this is the only, you know, information you have about the first video, then, you know, you it's not gonna not gonna change your life. You need the context of the entire video.
03:40So I'm assuming that you've watched the first video now and I wanna just quickly summarize what we've learned because if you haven't properly understood and grasped the concepts of achieving omniscience, then you must go and watch it again. So if you're kind of if got some question marks in your mind right now thinking like, I don't really get it, like it doesn't really make any sense.
03:56Like, it did this really needs to be like locked into your brain. This really needs to make sense before we continue on here because things are gonna get wackier, things are gonna get weirder. There's a lot of stuff information for me to give you and it will work and, you know, it really really will change your life.
04:12But in order to trust it and believe it and understand it, you you know, you need to you need to really gauge the thing and and really really understand it. So gonna summarize this quickly.
04:21I know you've just learned this, but it's important. So in a nutshell, reality is the sum of everything that exists and it exists in two forms.
04:30So we have objective reality, which is the state of things as they actually exist where there's no meaning and nothing really is anything. Then we have subjective reality, which is the state of things as a human believes they exist. And in order for us to experience subjective reality, we have to observe objective reality, and then we create meaning and judgment and all sorts of things in this process.
04:49Now, reality is made up of components and components are broken into two categories. So a component is a piece of reality and it can be intangible or tangible.
04:58So intangible are components that cannot be seen, touched, or physically sensed, and tangible are components that can be seen, touched, or physically sensed. And what happens is human beings observe reality, and we do this using two different things, our five senses or our imagination.
05:12So if we want to make an observation about the intangible or the tangible, tangible, then we're gonna use our five senses. If it's intangible, then we are going to use our imagination.
05:21And using these mechanisms, reality exists and can also be observed in three different dimensions of time. So, you know, we we really have three different sort of dimensions to observe this across and that is past reality, so what reality was, present reality, which is what reality is, and future reality, which is what reality could or will be.
05:40And we can make observations and judgments and and give meaning and assign things to all three time time periods and time Now to observe past reality or future reality, so to observe what was or what could be or will be, you have to use your, you know, you have to use the present. You you have you go through the present to observe these things and and this idea is really important because it will become clearer as we continue through these videos why this idea is important and why you need to remember it.
06:06Okay? Now, as reality has two forms and three time frames, it exists in six dimensions. So we have tangible past reality, tangible present reality, and tangible future reality.
06:18And this was what was, what is, and what could be or will be physically. So, you know, like an example is what does Mark Zuckerberg look like? What did he look like, and what could he look like in the future?
06:29Then we have intangible past reality, intangible present reality, and intangible future reality. And this is what was, what is, and what will or could be abstractly.
06:39Okay? So, you know, what was the, you know, political state of of Greece, you know, a couple of years ago?
06:46And what is it now? And what could it be in the future? Right?
06:49Could Athens make a comeback? Unlikely. When someone observes one of the six dimensions using their senses or imagination, they create an experience.
06:57And all experiences are subjective. So if you remember, anytime that you observe anything in reality across one of these different dimensions, you create an experience.
07:08So it doesn't matter if you, you know, have a dream about the future state of, you know, Montana and it doesn't matter if, you know, you you suddenly start remembering eating an ice cream when you were five years old. Any observation creates an experience, and your experiences are subjective which means they are subject to your perspective.
07:28Observations are made through a paradigm and your paradigm consists of your worldview and your identity. So imagine before you want to observe reality, you have to put on glasses and that those glasses are essentially your paradigm.
07:41So every observation you make is through the glasses. And so if the glasses are warped and a bit weird and cursed, then everything you see will be warped and a bit weird and cursed.
07:49And the two lenses to these glasses are your worldview and your identity. And your worldview and your identity consists of beliefs. Okay?
07:58I probably should put beliefs. And there are three types of belief. So really your paradigm is is basically the aggregate term to use to describe all of your belief systems and really they're categorized into these two things, but we have three different buckets of beliefs.
08:11So any belief you have falls into one of three categories. First of all is a knowledge belief, which is what you believe exists. And this is a part of your worldview, but really this is basically like what do you think is actually there?
08:24What is it that you think you've observed before before judging anything or assigning meaning to anything like what do you think exists in the first place? Okay? An example of of a knowledge belief would be, you know, you thinking that you have that your father is alive, you know, for example.
08:39Right? Or you thinking that outside there's a tree. Then we have judgment belief, which is what you believe about what you believe exists.
08:49And so this is where we take things that we observe and that we have knowledge of that exist and we start assigning meaning and judgment to them. And so, you know, you might have the knowledge that your father is over there and he's alive, and then you might judge that, you know, he is six foot tall, for example.
09:05Or you might look outside and say there's a tree and, you know, that's knowledge. Right? That's a that's a piece of knowledge that you that you have and you might judge that tree as that tree is tall or that tree is my favorite tree, you know, and you'll start you'll start judging it.
09:18Now, if you said that tree is my favorite tree, then what you formed is a self image belief because this is what you believe about yourself in relation to either your judgments or your knowledge. And so, you know, if if I say that's a tree, that tree is tall, you know, that tree is my family tree.
09:37You know, that that that's the tree that I used to spend time with with my family. Right? Eating picnics under that tree.
09:44Now it's become self image. And so anytime that you use the words our, we, my, or I in relation to something in your observation or in your statements, it's a self image belief.
09:57Now, typically, to form an identity around something and to form a self image belief, you must first judge it because it's very rare that we identify or misidentify disidentify with things that we haven't first judged because, you know, judgment is kind of the precursor to identity.
10:16But in order to judge something, you first must know it exists. So my point is that you can't form a self image and you can't form judgments about things that you don't know exist. And so the first step to forming a belief is the awareness of the thing that you're forming beliefs about.
10:31And here's what your paradigm looks like. So we have the glasses that you wear and, you know, what you don't realize that you're wearing these, like, you're watching this video right now through your paradigm, but you just don't don't realize it.
10:44You have these glasses on, you just can't feel the frames. Right? And then and then we have the paradigm, the worldview and the identity, and knowledge beliefs, structural beliefs, and self image beliefs, and these beliefs create these components which creates the paradigm.
10:57Now beliefs form through experiences. So if you're wondering where do your beliefs come from, well, come from your experiences. And if you remember an experience is basically the product of an observation.
11:10When you experience something, you create beliefs about that experience and these are knowledge judgment and identity based beliefs. But sometimes you won't always create all three. So it's entirely possible to have an experience without judging or identifying with the thing.
11:24So an example of this could be, let's say that you're walking on a beach and you walk past a person and that person is in your peripheral view, you don't really get a good look of them but you don't really care because you're focused on like your child or your dog or something.
11:40And so, you know, you have knowledge that that person exists but you didn't stop to judge them or identify them. So it's entirely possible to have experiences without any of this. Now, if you were to say, that person was, you know, six foot tall and a woman.
11:56Well, now you judge them. Right? Because, yeah, you kinda have.
12:00Now everyone has a different paradigm. No two are the same and they vary. People have similar paradigms.
12:06So, you know, another info marketer selling high ticket programs that makes 8 figures will have a a somewhat similar paradigm to me, but because nobody has the same experiences, no two paradigms are the same.
12:20Okay? You can have similar perspectives and similar belief systems to people who are like you.
12:26So, you know, for example, I used to work in the gym niche for my first business which was a marketing agency and in the gym niche like they were gym owners. And gym owners tended to think the same way and see the world in the same light and especially gym owners that were making the same amount of money and, know, have similar staff and they were very similar.
12:45But at the end of the day, that's just one component of paradigm which is business and running a gym. Now your reality can be laddered down to the following or by the following chain of logic. So your life is pretty much the product of your actions and your actions are the product of your decisions.
13:04Your decisions are the product of your perceived options because it's impossible to decide to do something if you don't perceive an option to do it. And your perceived options are a product of your thoughts because you can't really perceive that you have an option to do something if you don't think about it. Right?
13:18But then where do your thoughts come from? Like where the hell do these things come from? Well, your thoughts really do come from your paradigm.
13:24Like, you know, the way that you see the world and the way that you think things are kind of your your thoughts your thoughts come from like, you know, just this weird I don't know where your thoughts come from to be completely honest with you. But the idea is that all of your thoughts when they when they are created in your consciousness or unconsciousness or wherever the hell these or the ether or whatever the hell wherever the hell these things come from, they're they're essentially biased through your paradigm.
13:49So all your thoughts come out through your paradigm. I don't know if it's your paradigm that actually produces them, you know, but before before they come to your conscious awareness, they're sort of filtered through this thing which means in essence, you know, your paradigm creates them.
14:02And your paradigm is the sum of your beliefs and your beliefs are the sum of your experiences. And so this is how, you know, we go from experiences all the way to life because when you really think about this, it kinda makes sense because, you know, if someone said to you like, what is your life?
14:16Well, you'd say, it's basically just the sum of all my experiences because it is, you know, like this term called life, you know, you you you give it a time frame based on how many years you've been alive and then we we can understand that really all that your life is is just like a collection of billions and probably way more than that of of little snapshots like frames just cut together, you know, and then either preserved by memory or imagined into the future.
14:42Now your thoughts come from a paradigm in the same way that a star emits energy. So, you know, if you've got like a, you know, like a if we look at the sun, that sun is is it's gonna produce energy and it's gonna send energy out in lots of directions and that's gonna how your paradigm produces thoughts.
14:58Now experiences shape your beliefs and take three forms. So when it comes to experiences, we have three different types of experience.
15:06The first is an initial experience and this is the first time we experience something. So, you know, when you when you when you come into contact with something, when you become aware of something and you've never come into contact with that thing before and you've never been aware of it before, then you have what we call an initial experience and this is always novel and new.
15:23And so, like for example, I bought a new pair of headphones the other day and my first ever experience of those headphones was putting them on and listening to music through them.
15:37And, you know, it's it's completely novel like my the that that that experience of listening to music through this headphones for the first time is going to greatly influence my belief system about these headphones and, you know, whether they're good or not. And then you have your confirming experiences. So you might not know it, but you've got a ton of belief systems.
15:55Right? You really do, you know, they they exist. You might just not know that they are yet.
15:59And this is basically an experience that confirms what you really believe. So every time you have an experience that in essence, you know, confirms a belief you already have, then you have a confirmed experience. But on the flip side, we have denying experiences.
16:13So this is an experience that denies what you already believe. So sometimes, you know, you can have like a an experience and it can deny what you believe.
16:22So let's say that my initial experience of these headphones was watching a YouTube video and let's say that that YouTube video was incredibly positive and therefore I thought, you know, I judged that these headphones were going to be good.
16:35Right? That's that's my that's my belief system of, you know, the of intangible future reality. You know, these headphones will sound great.
16:43It could be tangible because it's listening. Right? But you get the point.
16:47So I have this initial experience on YouTube of all these head headphones are gonna be great. And then let's say that I put them on and let's say that they're not very great. Well, I've just had a denying experience which, you know, denies the reality that I've created.
16:59K? Now it's usually more common that we have confirming experiences than denying experiences because, well, humans we have a pretty strong tendency to seek to confirm what we already believe to be true.
17:12Okay? But it is entirely possible to have a denying experience. So like, you know, let's say for example that right now you probably believe that, you know, the Burj Khalifa well, let let's let's do another example.
17:26Let's because right now the deepest part of the ocean is the Mariana Trench. But what might happen you know, I don't know where the Mariana Trench is to be honest, but I know that exists. And what might happen tomorrow on the news is scientists might find a deeper part of the ocean that could be twice as deep as the Mariana Trench.
17:45And, you know, that would be a news article and it would come into my sensory awareness and I'd read it and I'd understand it and that would deny, you know, my my belief system and it would create a new initial experience.
17:58So let's say that they found a new trench called, you know, the Charlie is a geographical idiot trench then then I've got a new first experience of that trench and I've denied what I already believed to be true.
18:12K? Every single belief that you hold came from initial experience and was likely confirmed by confirming experiences.
18:22So the way that your beliefs work and the way that these things are structured is pretty straightforward. Every single belief that you have, every single thing you believe to be true right now, like trust me, you've got thousands, hundreds of thousands, maybe even millions of these things.
18:38Right? Everything probably millions. Everything you believe to be true, it came you every belief had a sort of con like a a a genesis, a beginning, and it all started with an initial experience.
18:50And then what happened is you started confirming these things, and so the beliefs that you have that are really firm and that you're really sort of locked in on, well, these these things have just been confirmed over and over again.
19:03And beliefs essentially bias you. Your perception of future experiences and events in your life are biased by your beliefs and they form your paradigm and we start seeing the world through the beliefs. And so, for example, what we can see here is if you think money is great, then what's gonna happen is there are gonna be events that happen in your life like your friend buying a Ferrari, or you winning the lottery, or your landlord increasing the rent, or a bank collapsing, or a rich person dying.
19:34And if your belief is that money is great, then you're gonna see all of these events through that lens and your observations of these things will be subject to that belief. But on the flip side, if you believe that money is evil and everything's bad with money, then if the same things happen to you, then you're gonna have completely different perspectives and you're gonna form completely different beliefs about these things because of your bias.
19:57Okay? Now your subjective reality is the sum of your experiences and your life really is just your experiences.
20:04In the same way that a movie is a collection of a lot of frames, and a novel is a collection of a lot of letters or words, your life is just a collection of a lot of experiences. Your reality is a very high frame rate movie playing one conscious experience after the other.
20:18And if you ever seen these before, like these flip charts where you kind of take like something that's that's in motion and you draw lots of different frames of that thing and then you can sort of make it look like it's in motion. This is kind of your your life.
20:32Okay? So you go through your you go through life, you're with your consciousness, consciousness is like a flashlight for the chaos of life and you basically just you're taking these little constant screenshots and then your brain's kind playing it back to you in a very high frame rate, high definition experience and that's basically life.
20:51Okay? And every all of these experiences they're all stored up in your brain and they've created your beliefs and now every time you have another experience or a new one that it's biased to what you already believe to be true.
21:03And so that's basically achieving omniscient summarize and I wanted to just sort of go back over that quickly at the beginning here because it's gonna come in handy and, you know, you really need to know this stuff because I'm gonna tell you exactly how to change your beliefs and reprogram your brain so that you can ultimately fix your behavior, your actions, your decisions, and your paradigm, and really we're gonna completely change your life and and and the key to doing that is by just changing your belief systems.
21:29But what I've learned is that the the deeper your understanding of beliefs and how they operate and how they work, the easier it is to change them because it's very hard to deal with something and change something if you don't understand the nature of it and if you don't understand everything you need to know about it. So bear with me because, you know, there's gonna be some overlap here.
21:49We're gonna continue discussing this belief thing and we're gonna keep going until it's really just drilled into you. But in later videos, when we talk about changing your belief systems and basically reprogramming your bank I I mean this, like, you can in the same way that, you know, let's say that you've got a computer.
22:06Right? And that computer is running a operating system at the moment.
22:11And let's say that you don't like the operating system. So what you do is you plug in a hard drive and you install a new operating system into your computer, which means that your computer runs all of the programs and everything in a completely different way that is way better for you. That's basically what I'm gonna teach you how to do.
22:27Like, I'm gonna show you how to completely completely overhaul all of your belief systems, remove all of your limiting beliefs, and replace them with beliefs that just basically get you really far.
22:40But, you know, that that sounds great and everything, but when you understand how beliefs work and and everything about them, it doing that is just 10 times easier, you know.
22:51It's kind of like, imagine trying to like, you know, mess around with your computer's operating system and the code and the HTML of everything if if if you didn't have any idea how it works. Right? You'd you'd basically get lost.
23:04So okay. Let's start with belief conditioning.
23:08So when you're born, you are known as what psychologists would call a tabula rasa and this is basically just a fancy latin word that makes me sound smarter than I am and what it means is blank slate in latin.
23:23And what this means is that when you're born, you're born without being anything. Okay? This is a really important idea because at birth when you spawn in, you don't have any preloaded beliefs and you don't have a paradigm.
23:39Now, the only argument that people would make which I could see is fair enough to make is the idea of religion. So someone who really believes in God could say, yep, when I was born, you know, I was already religious.
23:52I'm not gonna argue with the with the religious argument. Right? But but for pretty much every single part of component of your life and your identity, when you're born, you are born as nothing.
24:03You are a blank slate. You are a blank white well, you might not be white. Right?
24:07Was gonna say white canvas book. Who knows how much trouble I'll get in for that? But you're a you're a blank canvas, right, when you're born.
24:15There's there's nothing to you, you know. You don't come out of the womb with, you know, a concept like a concept of Bitcoin and what you think Bitcoin's gonna do.
24:25You don't you don't you're not born and then suddenly you're like, oh, I really hated the Nazis. Like all of these things that have been that you believe have been conditioned. You didn't you didn't have them when you were born.
24:36Okay? Having said that though, there are two things that influence how your paradigm forms and there are two things that, you know, will will will bias the beliefs that you form.
24:48Okay? So you're not born with anything but you are born with with what we would call a bias. And these two things are one, psychological loading and two, genetic loading.
24:59So psychological loading, when you're born you basically have like, you're you're kind of your psychology is is somewhat coded in a certain way.
25:08Right? And you won't be conscious of this not until a very long time when you do like the Myers Briggs personality test and stuff. But, you know, you're born with a personality and you're born with a temperament, you know, like you're born with certain personality traits, you're born with certain characteristics, some things are gonna come easier to you than others, some things are gonna come harder to you than others.
25:29Right? And you have unconscious tendencies that will shape your paradigm. Now, these aren't as significant as you might think because, you know, your personality and your temperament, it develops with you.
25:41Like, you know, it's not it is preloaded and it kind of is built into you and, you know, gives a sense all to of these different behaviors and perspectives. But, you know, your your personality is still in large part a comp like a a product of your environment and of your conditioning and of the beliefs that you form.
25:59Now genetic loading, so your genes and your genetics can also influence your psychology and therefore your paradigm. Like for example, there is a gene called monoamine oxidase a gene or the m a o a gene and I read about this a while ago and this is known as the warrior gene and what it does is it gives you a proclivity or bias towards aggression.
26:18So, you know, some kids are gonna be running around the playground like basically trying to kill people. Well, I'm not quite, you know, because they're innocent kids but you know what I mean. Right?
26:26You know, you get kids that can be like really aggressive. Well, someone who has the MAOA gene, although it's not very common at all, like it is possible for you to have genes that, you know, give you a proclivity in in certain directions and towards certain things.
26:41And, you know, those those proclivities and those biases will naturally create or bias the belief formations.
26:51Now psychological and genetic loading are dominant or are dormant factors, sorry, which means dormant means that they're kind of led there unawakened.
27:01Right? They're dormant factors that will bias the way your paradigm forms. They're quite strong but they are not deterministic.
27:09So deterministic means that, you know, this is just how things are and nothing's ever gonna You know, it's extremely rare and honestly I would argue impossible for psychological and genetic loading to hold you back.
27:20So like other examples, you know, like your IQ, you know, like how how intelligent you are.
27:28Maybe you're dyslexic, maybe you've got ADHD, you know, maybe you're born with sickle cell anemia which would be, you know, I would suck but, you know, these these things they can be obstacles to your success and they might make it harder but it's not impossible.
27:42Like, it really isn't impossible. Like, people are born with like problems and then they basically use those problems as a as a as a sort of they use them as like a shield to absolve themselves of the responsibility of their life.
27:56So, you know, someone who's dyslexic in school will just be like, instead of like, you know, tanking it out and try actually, you know, trying really hard and, you know, working, this person will just be like, oh, you know, I'm dyslexic which means that I'm never gonna never gonna succeed.
28:11And so what a lot of people do is they use these things to give a sense to the victim mentality which is something we're also gonna talk about in this mindset module and how to get rid of that. But it's not impossible because like, you know, I can give you an example, Richard Branson, who's the founder of the the the big brand Virgin, he's like a multi billionaire.
28:30Like, he's dyslexic. Right? But he's still written many books which is something that dyslexic people aren't supposed to do.
28:37Right? And he's built a multi billion dollar empire in spite of struggling to read emails and write and type.
28:45And his paradigm and therefore his behavior is certainly influenced by this, but you know, but with these two exceptions, with the exception of your psychological and genetic loading, you are very much tabula rasa.
28:59Once again that means blank slate. Okay? So this is my point like people think like they're born with it.
29:07People think that you know, like if someone's like if someone's like a a star athlete and someone's like a ultimate ultimate success in life, they think, oh, that person was just born with it or that person was born with talent.
29:20Yeah. Sure. If you look at a basketball player being, you know, six foot nine and, you know, athletically inclined might be might be pretty beneficial, but for the most part, like, you know, it just comes down to conditioning and work, and there's no such thing as he's she was just born with it.
29:38You know, people people think this about, like, Mozart. People like Mozart was was playing these crazy symphonies at, like, the age of seven. But what people don't understand is that Mozart started practicing music at, like, the age of two.
29:51Well, I don't know if it was quite that young, but there's stories about, you know, how he might have been, you know, creatively inclined, and I'm sure that he was with his psychology and his genes, but a lot of it is to do with conditioning. Because imagine if Mozart didn't practice until he was like 15.
30:09He wouldn't have been his trial prodigy. He just wouldn't if he was like a peasant and didn't have access to all that stuff, then again, he might have been a peasant. I actually have no idea about history of Mozart, so I am gonna swiftly move on.
30:18But you get my point. Okay. So you've made it this far into the video.
30:20Congratulations. Your attention span is actually good. That's amazing.
30:24Again, I mentioned this at the start of the video, but just just to grab you for a quick second here. First thing in the description of this YouTube video is basically everything I've learned about making $40,000,000 compiled into a series of mentorships and programs. I used to sell them for $10.15, $20,000.
30:38You can now access them without actually paying me. We've partnered with a $2,500,000,000 company, and we have a very limited offer for you to basically access all those things without having to pay the big bucks.
30:51That makes sense. It's pretty unique deal. It's very limited availability, and it won't be around forever.
30:55So if you wanna capitalize on opportunity and get access to that and learn everything you need to know about making loads of money, there will be a link in the description you can click. Be the first one, go and do it now if you're interested and if you're liking this content. If not, it's all good, I get it, no stress.
31:08Let's keep going. Now remember the main things that form your beliefs and your paradigm are your experiences. In fact, the only things.
31:16And as you now know, experience takes three forms. So remember we have our initial experiences, confirming experiences, and denying experiences.
31:25And for a belief to form, need an initial experience to support it at the start. It is impossible for a belief to form if you do not have an experience.
31:35It is important that they they they cannot they cannot form. Whether it's in your head, in your imagination, in your memory, you know, whether it's in your in your immediate sensory experience or awareness, you can't form a belief without an experience.
31:51Now your initial experiences don't have to happen early. Right?
31:56So, you know, everyone thinks that everything happens in childhood and to be honest, pretty much all of it does, but a lot of people form their beliefs in their early years and teen years, but a lot of your beliefs can form way later into adulthood. So, you know, take a belief system you have right now about like, let's say that there's let's say a new politician comes onto the scene, you know, in in like Canada or something, like someone you've never heard of before and, you know, that person is like, let's say they're really right wing or something.
32:27Well, you know, you're gonna have an experience of of them on the news or on social media probably. Maybe you see them live and they're talking and, you know, you're gonna form a belief.
32:38So it is possible to form new beliefs. You do it all the time, like literally all the time. Anytime you experience a novel stimuli or something you've not seen before, you're gonna form new beliefs.
32:49And in in in the same way that, you know, right now if you believe something to be true and you have a significant denying experience or, you know, a significant enough significant denying experiences, then your belief will change.
33:02Okay? Because you'll think it's not true anymore.
33:06And it's totally possible to have new initial experiences when you're an adult and for your beliefs to be shifted accordingly. Okay? It really is possible for this to happen.
33:16Now, the question is is where do your initial experiences come from? Right?
33:22Like, how are these things where do they where do they come from? Well, you know that this is pretty obvious.
33:28Right? Because these things they come from reality and your observation of reality. But the other thing that we have to factor in here is environmental conditioning because you really are a product of your environment and I'm defining environment as everything you come into contact with.
33:42And there are two forms of environment. Okay? This is gonna get pretty interesting here.
33:47So in order for you to come into contact with with something, it has to be a part of your environment. And so your environment is basically like how I would describe your environment right now is the sum of everything that you can come into contact with in the immediate here and now. So, you know, if you look around everything that you can see right now, if we took all of that stuff together and put it into a word that would be your environment.
34:12And your environment obviously changes, so, you know, if you if you go home then you're in your home environment. If you go to your kitchen, now you're in the kitchen environment.
34:22If you go to an Airbnb, you're in the Airbnb environment, you know, so these these things they change. But ultimately, like, you know, if you take everything that you can come into contact with or ever will come into contact with, that is your environment.
34:34And your environment is a huge huge huge huge component of how your paradigm forms because in order for you to be able to comprehend something or think of it, it has to have come into your awareness which means that it has to have been part of your of your environment.
34:53And so, you know, if you're like if you're on your phone and you're scrolling through TikTok and something, you know, crops up, well that thing is in your environment and you now know it exists and you'll start to judge it. And so two forms of environment. So we have physical environment which is the sum of everything you constantly come into contact with physically.
35:10So this is all naturally occurring phenomena that can be observed. So the people, the books you read, forest cities. This also includes your digital environment which is a sum of everything you consciously come into contact with digitally.
35:23Everything naturally occurring phenomena that can be observed through a screen. So do you watch a movie? Environment.
35:30If you watch a show, part of environment, content, etcetera. Then we also have this is where it gets a little bit abstract because you can understand physical environment pretty easily.
35:40But the other thing that we have is your imaginary environment. And so this is basically the sum of everything you constantly come into contact with in your mind because, know, right now you can shut your eyes and you can do this, can trust me because you can do it right now.
35:56You can shut your eyes and you can start to imagine a new environment. Like you you can just literally like picture something in your head that you haven't necessarily seen existing naturally before.
36:11You can create this art sort of an artificial experience and and this is yours you're still very much in an environment here, but not in the physical sense. And these are intangible things that can't be seen or touched or sensed but it's still understandable.
36:26Okay? And this is how we obviously comprehend the intangible but, you know, if you if you imagine, if you have a dream, you know, let's say you have a dream right now or tomorrow tonight, right, and let's say that you have a dream that, you know, you are DJing for a crowd of like, I don't know, like a million people.
36:46It's like, well, that didn't happen and that wasn't a naturally occurring phenomena or phenomenon, but you were still very much there and it still very much felt real at the time which means that you were in that environment and, you know, you're gonna form beliefs about that experience although they might not be real.
37:06Does that make sense? Now your imaginary environment exists in your mind. You don't physically exist there, however, you you basically spend your entire life in your mind and it certainly has a similar nature to your physical environment.
37:19A quick note is that your imaginary environment is completely informed by your physical environment. It's where you synthesize and comprehend your physical experiences. It's incredibly rare and I would almost argue impossible, but I don't wanna speak in absolutes.
37:34It's very rare to have an imaginary experience that isn't informed or inspired by your physical experiences.
37:43So look, imagine that you've never ever physically or digitally interacted with the concept of democracy or money.
37:52So let's say that you've never like, you know, in in your in your physical environment, you've never ever come in the idea of democracy the word democracy has never been mentioned and you live in a totalitarian author author author authoritarian authoritarian, not the word, but you live in this sort of, you know, authoritative totalitarian society, which means that democracy has never existed for you.
38:13And you have no access to social media or books or any information that is the opposite. It's like, you know, if you haven't if you've never seen it and you've never experienced it in your immediate environment physically or digitally, then it's like it doesn't exist at all to you.
38:30And therefore, you wouldn't be able to imagine democracy or create an imaginary environment where democracy exists because you don't know it exists. Same thing with money.
38:39How can you imagine money or democracy if you've never experienced it using your senses? You simply can't. So in essence, it's pretty much very very rare that you have an imaginary experience that hasn't been first experienced physically or digitally.
38:56Now, a primary example of this is the theory of natural selection. So, you know, the the biological theory that we all know and love of of natural selection and evolution, the only way that Charles Darwin could formulate this theory in his mind or in his imagination was because of his observations of the physical and natural world, which he then synthesized in his mind.
39:18And so the keyword here is synthesis. So your imaginary environment and and the these sort of things that that you come into contact within your mind, these ideas, these thoughts, you know, these these these these abstractions, they are the product that that that is synthesis if you what you do is you take physical experiences and you synthesize them to sort of create these new things called imaginations.
39:41Right? And the same thing goes for any scientific, technological, or philosophical breakthrough.
39:47You can create beliefs using your mind but only using information first received by your physical senses. And so in essence, what this means is that your imagination and your imaginary environment is fundamentally constrained and limited to your physical experiences.
40:04Because you can if you can't if you've never experienced something before first physically in in, you know, in in your immediate environment, you you you can't really synthesize it into anything and you can't use it in your imagination. And, you know, you wanna look at it like this.
40:20So we've got this this circle here and yellow stars represent experiences that are sensed using your five senses. And so all of these little yellow stars here and there's gonna be bloody hundreds of millions billions of these depending on how old you are.
40:34Right? You know, these are all experiences that you've had and this is your immediate physical environment in the circle.
40:42Then what we have here is this sort of speech bubble, and inside of the speech bubble we have orange stars, and your orange the orange stars represent experiences that are sensed using your imagination. So these are your dreams, your memories, your future projections, and if you close your eyes right now for me and, you know, imagine imagine like dancing with a bathrobe on in just after you've got out the bath in your kitchen.
41:08Like, imagine that you can probably picture it. Right? That's that's something you just create an experience.
41:12But if you'd if you've never comprehended the idea of bathrobe or kitchen, well, suddenly you can't imagine those things because, you know, that's that.
41:21So what we've done with that experience is we synthesized synthesized together together dancing, you and your body, bathrobe, and kitchen.
41:31But if you've never if you've never seen dancing before, imagine asking someone, you know, in their mind to imagine like dancing if they've never ever if they don't even know what the word means. You know, it's kind of like this is pretty prevalent with language. So let's say someone doesn't speak English and you go to them and say, imagine yourself dancing.
41:52Well, because they have no comprehension of the word dancing because it's never come into their, you know, awareness for before at least in English, then they won't be able to imagine it. And what we do is we synthesize digital physical and digital experiences to create imaginary ones.
42:06So all of your imaginary experiences that form your beliefs are formed synthesizing these these experiences first. So let's say that you have a dream.
42:15Right? Let's get concrete here for a second, as concrete as we can in the abstract. So let's say that you have a dream and a dream is obviously an imaginary experience.
42:24Now, some dreams that you have like they can really you can really form belief systems about your dreams. Like, you know, it's it's it's really is possible like, you know, if you imagine for example that you have a nightmare about like a a spider chasing you, you know, and you know, it feels very real in the dream and you wake up and you you know, you're screaming and you're sweating and it's horrible.
42:49Well, what's gonna happen as a result of that dream is you're gonna wake up and say, I hate spiders and it's a confirming experience that might confirm what you already believe to be true about your hatred for spiders, you know.
43:03Like these these things they they it's impossible to have an experience without without, you know, they they always form belief systems. They really do even if they're not real.
43:13Everything in your dream will be something that you've seen before. This So is an interesting idea with dreams and with imagination is you can't dream of something unless you've already seen it.
43:26Now, the exception to this is you can synthesize things. So I could dream of, you know, I could dream of the Eiffel Tower stacked on top of the, you know, the Pyramids Of Giza.
43:39But in order for me to like that's not something I've ever seen before. I've never seen the Eiffel Tower on Giza, but the point is I've synthesized the two together.
43:48Like, you know, you don't you can have you could have a dream about a building you've never seen before, but all you're doing is taking all the buildings you've ever seen and synthesizing them into this new thing. If you'd never seen like a a skyscraper in your life, let's say that you lived in, you know, let's say that your entire life you've lived in rural Finland in the North Of Finland and you've never seen a skyscraper in your entire life ever.
44:13Well, you're never gonna have a dream about any skyscrapers because you've never seen them before.
44:19So you have no point of reference. So let's say okay. Let's give another example.
44:25Let's say that you dreamed of a flying elephant made of lava. You might say, well, Charlie, I've just dreamed of a flying elephant made of lava and I can assure you that I've never seen I've never like a flying elephant made of lava has never come into my physical or digital environment. And that'd be a pretty fair thing to say.
44:43But what I would say is that to have that imaginary experience in a dream, at some point in your life, you'd need to have observed an elephant, the concept of flight, and lava.
44:55And so what your brain's done is it synthesized these three things together. So it's not the it's not the thing that you're observing that you have to have seen before, it's the components of the thing that have to have been observed that then gets synthesized into a new experience. And these sensory experience have been combined and synthesized to create a unique imaginary experience.
45:16And so the way this works is, let's say that you have an imaginary experience that is just completely whack, like it's completely weird, you know, it could be a dream, a daydream, a thought, like, you know, maybe you maybe you close your eyes right now and, you know, you imagine like a a vampire, you know, that's like a 100 feet tall and, you know, he's like eating like a a cake or something.
45:42Like, it's it's not real, it's never gonna happen. Right? But basically, what you're doing when you imagine something that's that that you've never seen before is you're aggregating a bunch of physical experiences that happened in your immediate environment that you observed, and you're putting them together to create this new thing.
46:00And so that's what imagination is, that's what creativity is. Is it's basically, you know, synthesizing things that we already have and have already experienced into something new.
46:11Now, let me give you another example. So if you don't believe this, then right now what I want you to do is I want you to close your eyes and I want you to imagine a dryo I think I can pronounce this.
46:23A dryocaecalius australis in the color gamboge with a large siamela on its back. Just do me a favor and shut your eyes and imagine that for me.
46:34Okay. A dry coccullis australis, it's got to be gamboge which is a color and it's got to have this thing called a large siamela on his back.
46:45I just just picture that for me for a second here. Well, you can't and the reason that you can't is because this thing, this thing, and this thing have never entered your immediate sensory awareness.
47:01Your imagination and your ability to create imaginary experiences is fundamentally constrained to the bank of physical experiences you've had.
47:11Now you might try, you know, you could you could come up with the, you know, what you think this thing is and you could come up with Gamboge and Asiamela but you would do this using like a points of reference that you already have and you wouldn't be right or accurate at all.
47:29So you could you could say that this is like a dog with seven heads and it's got really small feet and Gamboge is like a scion black and a siamela is a horn and you you could you can you can by all means come up with these things and you know, but but what you're doing is you're basically just taking like physical experiences that you've had and projecting them onto this thing.
47:50Right? And so like a dog with seven heads with small feet. Well, in order for you to imagine that, you have to have first observed a dog, the idea of a head, some the idea that something can have multiple heads and small feet, you know.
48:05These things that they get it gets a bit weird but you know my point. And you can't do this. You can't imagine this at least not accurately and some of you might.
48:13Some of you absolute nerds out there might might know what this stuff means. But for the the sake of this exercise, you can't and this is because these things have never entered your sensory awareness and because you've never experienced them in your environment using your senses, you can't imagine them.
48:29And in case you're curious, this thing here the Dryocoqueleus australis is an insect.
48:39It's actually the rarest insect in the world. So if you knew what this thing was then fair enough. Right?
48:44The color gamboge is this sort of orangish color and the siamela is a bone in your knee. So it's like, you know, now that you now that you see these things, right, you could close your eyes and imagine this in orange with this knee bone or tendon sticking out of its back because you've now experienced them and you can you can synthesize them in this way.
49:07So in essence, here's how this thing works. Your physical environment sends information inputs to your brain. So all of the initial like inputs that you receive come from your physical environment and this can be the screens, it can be like a digital environment like, you know, screens are kind of like a portal to another component of reality.
49:28So it can very much be that or just anything else like anything else in your environment. And then you basically have your imaginary environment which sends information inputs to your brain and creates experiences like when you dream or when you think of something or when you synthesize physical experiences together to create new imaginary ones.
49:50And then we have imaginary experiences. Right? And imaginary experiences are abstract experiences synthesized from physical ones.
49:59Okay? And your beliefs and your subject to reality are formed from these experiences. So the point I'm making here is that the way that you believe the world works and the way that you formulate your subjective experience and your your subjective reality, which is basically is your reality.
50:16Right? Well, you have these experiences in your physical environment which come into your come into contact with your awareness and your brain and you then, you know, project your beliefs onto the world and form this.
50:30But what happens is in order for you to form imaginary experiences, you synthesize physical experiences, then you have imaginary experiences, and then you use these imaginary experiences to form beliefs about the way the world works.
50:43Okay? So the reason I'm explaining this to you and I know it's a little it's a little abstract and it's a little confusing at times is just to make you realize that your environment does play a huge role in the formation of your identity and in the formation of your judgments and therefore your paradigm.
51:01Okay? So let's talk about belief structure and this is huge.
51:08What I'm about to explain is is is is a when I figured this one out a long time ago, this thing completely changed my life and everything that I've taught you so far has been leading up to this idea.
51:21The big question is how our beliefs structured? Like like, yeah, we know we know what they are now and we know where they come from, you know, we we know they're like statements of perceived truth, we know they come from initial experiences and, you know, we know they're confirmed or denied and, you know, we know that experiences create them and, you know, you you've got a pretty loose idea as to what a belief is right now.
51:46But the big question is like, how are they actually structured? Like, what's their like, how can we visualize what a belief is? How can we actually truly understand it?
51:56Well, I'm gonna help you totally conceptualize a belief and how they really work. So here's a visual for you. So if if if you need to like in order to understand how these things work, we need to be able to sort of see them.
52:10Right? We need to have a visual and so here's a visual. So the way this works is at the bottom, you have a component of reality because in order for us to form a belief, we have to we form them about components.
52:26So if there's no component then there's no belief. So, you know, for example, like if I just say to you right now, like try and form a belief about nothing. You you you can.
52:37You you you just it's impossible. Right?
52:41And so we always every belief is based on the component. And what will happen is you'll have one component of reality which could be anything from the curtains in your bedroom to, you know, Mussolini, the Italian dictator from the forties.
52:58I think it was the forties. But, you know, you have components of reality and what happens is you form many beliefs about these components. Right?
53:06And the way a belief looks is it acts as a scale. So, you know how like you can you can get like a a scale where like, you know, you have the fulcrum, the the sort of triangle in the middle and then, you know, you have like these two scales and you might, you know, you might have seen your mother or your grandmother or someone like weighing sugar or, you know, weight tips the scale.
53:30And on the left side of the scale, we have true and on the right side of the scale, we have false.
53:40And beliefs are basically broken down into these two things. And what we have on either side is we have intensity and so if the belief was weighted in the truth which is which meant that we we believed the statement to be true, which is basically a belief, then the intensity of it depends on how much we believe it to be true.
54:01And this is really interesting because beliefs in in their strength are not binary.
54:07They really aren't. So let's say that you took a religious man who believed in Jesus and let's say that, you know, he let's say this guy is the pope.
54:19Right? Let's say that he is a bishop or a pope, like one of the most religious people on the planet. Now, if you said to him, do you think God is real?
54:30He would say, yes, absolutely. And he would have extreme conviction in that statement.
54:35Right? You know, he it would be it would be off the the intensity of that belief in terms of the truth would be completely off the charts. But then if you ask that, if you ask the same guy, do you like cheddar cheese?
54:48He might say, yeah, it's it's okay. It's it's true, you know, the belief is true but how intense is the truth?
54:56Right? Because, you know, if you said to him like, do you like cheddar cheese as much as you like God? Then he'd probably say, no, I prefer God to cheese.
55:05Right? And I know that's a weird example but just bear with me. It's a hard thing to explain and it will become clear.
55:13So reality exists as components. So for example, components, sales, trees, family, beans, Ray Ban, anything, like anything that you can that you can observe is a component.
55:26And for every observable component, you have beliefs that sit on top of them. And you wanna think of each belief as a scale and the scale is measured by intensity of truth and falseness.
55:39Now, one thing that's important to note is that your knowledge based beliefs are very binary. So this means is that they're either true or false in a binary sense meaning either 0% or a 100%.
55:53Like for example, if I look at a chair outside, I can see a chair outside, I am 100% certain that that chair is real and true.
56:04So, you know, look look at your desk right now and pick something on your desk. Right? Look at something on your desk or on your table and just observe it.
56:13To you, like you believe that that's real. Right?
56:16So in your mind, you have a knowledge based belief that that thing exists. There's no level of intensity, it's just real.
56:23So it's not it's not like it's not like I'm asking you to measure how much you love God or how much you like pizza. I'm just that it's like I'm just saying how real is that thing you're saying, dude, it's there. Like it's real.
56:35So knowledge based beliefs like the scale idea doesn't really apply to them because the intensity is a 100% no matter what. Like when a belief has a 100% intensity, it means that it cannot be possibly challenged.
56:48Like there's no doubt in your mind that that thing is real and our knowledge is almost always doubtless because if I walk into a room right now and, you know, I see that there's a plant, that plant is there.
57:03Like I'm a 100% certain that that plant exists But if you said to me like, is that plant big?
57:11Then that's up for debate because I could say, yeah, it's kinda big. Like it's true the plant is big to me to my subjectively to my experience, the plant is big but is it really big like how big is it, you know? And I'd be like, well, it's it's big but it's not it's not huge, you know.
57:28So it's kind of like this thing exists on a scale of intensity. And judgment and self image based beliefs are a little trickier to gauge because the scales are stacked and weighed based on intensity and they have strength. So, you know, some beliefs are stronger than others.
57:46Like beliefs aren't just these, you know, these binary things that exist in the same way as everything because, you know, like if you ask me, you know, do do I love my mother?
58:00That's a pretty strong intense belief like I'm like, yes, do. It's true and it's very true. Right?
58:06The intensity is extreme. But then if you asked me, you know, like, do I like my sunglasses?
58:12Do I love my sunglasses? Like, yeah, I love my sunglasses but I don't love them as much as I love my mother. So what you need to understand is that all of your beliefs, they they kind of they they exist in this sort of scale of contrast each other where how true something is and how false something is and how strong your beliefs are depend on how strong your other beliefs are.
58:35K? So there are beliefs, there are keystone, cornerstone beliefs that have ridiculous levels of intensity in your life. For example, like, I believe that I am a man.
58:46Right? And that's my gender and my sex. Right?
58:50And, you know, that that's something that is is basically you belief is so strong and that there that it's so it's so intense and it's so it's so true to me that it's near enough binary, it's near enough like a 100% certainty.
59:06Look, there's no doubt in my mind that am a man. Right? And that's how I formed my identity.
59:11And, you know, it it's important to know. And you will believe these things to either be true or false, but it depends on how true or how false.
59:21So, you know, if you ask someone who had like a, you know, identity crisis like, are you a man? And if they didn't think that, then they might be like, yeah, I think so. But if they're not sure, then then the belief doesn't have much strength to it.
59:35And this is important to understand because as you know by now or you might start to gather, we act out our beliefs and our actions and decisions come from our beliefs.
59:47And the stronger a belief is and the more intense the belief is, the more action we take in accordance with it. And the more convicted we are in our actions and the stronger our decisions and the more likely we are Stick to them.
1:00:00Okay? Now imagine that experiences are rocks.
1:00:06So in order for us to understand like because you might be wondering now like, well well, why is it that some beliefs are stronger than others? Like, know, why does this happen?
1:00:16Why is it that some beliefs can be completely totally true to us and fully, you know, fully intense, but some beliefs can just be a little bit true and, you know, not as true.
1:00:28Well, it's you can look at it like this. Imagine experiences are rocks.
1:00:34And so, like, every time that you have an experience whether either confirming or denying, what you do with that experience is you take it and you stack the scale accordingly.
1:00:47So let me explain. So we know that confirming experiences are experiences that confirm what you believe to be true, and we know that denying experiences are experiences that deny what you believe to be true.
1:01:00So every experience you have is either an initial experience, a confirming experience, or denying experience. And so what this means is that we have green rocks and we have red rocks.
1:01:12And so when we have a belief about a component of reality, every experience we have is either going to, like, experience we have in relation to this component or this belief is either going to confirm or deny the belief.
1:01:27And so let's say right now that you have a belief in your mind that you love pepperoni pizza, and you know that that's your identity based belief is I love pepperoni pizza. And, you know, let's say that one day you order a pizza and you start eating that pizza.
1:01:44Now the consumption of that pizza becomes an experience. And let's say that it's a pepperoni pizza, but let's say it's horrible. Let's say that for some reason your taste buds just like it's it's crusty and it's like kind of stale and it's cheap and it's nasty, and, you know, this is a denying experience.
1:02:02And so what's gonna happen is you your experience has just been that I didn't really like that pepperoni pizza, and therefore the belief system of I love pepperoni pizza has been challenged and slightly denied. And so what happens is you're gonna take that negative experience and you're gonna stack a rock.
1:02:19You're gonna take that rock and you're gonna put it in the false bucket, which slightly tips the scale. Not by much because you've probably had a 100 pizzas before that are amazing, but that belief just became slightly less strong because of one bad pizza.
1:02:34So in the middle of the diagram is a fulcrum, and the fulcrum is is the is the triangle, right, the the sort of body of the scale. And it represents a belief, and a belief will typically be represented as a perceived statement of truth.
1:02:48So, you know, you articulate your beliefs and whenever you state something that you think is the truth is a belief. Attached to the belief is a lever that has two opposite baskets.
1:02:58The green basket is the confirmation basket, and this determines how true the observer believes the statement to be. And the red basket is the denial basket, and this confirms or this determines how false the observer believes the statement to be.
1:03:12The perceived trueness or falseness of a belief depends on how the scales are stacked, and therefore the strength of a belief depends on how the rocks are stacked.
1:03:24Beliefs exist in pairs. What this means is that if you believe something to be true, you believe the opposite statement to be false and vice versa to the same degree and level of intensity.
1:03:37So if right now you stack the scales heavily for I love pepperoni pizza in the true faction, then what that means is you believe I love pepperoni pizza to be true.
1:03:51But what that also means is that you believe I hate pepperoni pizza to be false, and the falseness of the opposite statement is directly equal to the trueness of the other statement.
1:04:05So I'll give you an example in just a second there. Because a confirming experience for one belief is always a denying experience for the other pair, for the other half of the pair, And a denying experience for one belief is always a confirming experience for the other half of the pair too.
1:04:22So what you want to imagine is that beliefs exist as these scales, but every belief you have has an equal and opposite belief.
1:04:32And so whenever you have a confirming experience for one belief, you deny another. Because if you think something is true and you believe something to be true, then you also believe that it's not false, if that makes sense.
1:04:46So if I said to you, you know, if I said to you I am six foot two tall and that's what I believe to be true about myself, then if someone said to me, do you think you're five foot nine?
1:05:00I would say no. And so anything that is the opposite is immediately false if you think something's true.
1:05:08So this is this is a diagram to sort of, you know, give you give you an understanding here. So for example, let's take the component of money. Okay?
1:05:18So the component of money, we all know and love it. Maybe you hate it.
1:05:22I don't know. So the belief statement in question could be money is really hard to make. So let's say that you believe that money is really hard to make.
1:05:32Now and this is represented by this diagram here. Now the reason and let's say this is a strong belief, you know, we're in the seventieth percentile of intensity here.
1:05:46The reason that you think that money is really hard to make is because you have had experiences in the past that confirm it.
1:05:57And so every time you have an experience that demonstrates you that money is hard to make, like you see a homeless person, right, that confirms a belief. And every time you take a little rock and you stack it on that statement, you stack it on the truth scale.
1:06:14If someone believes this, if someone truly believes money is really hard to make, then they will not believe the opposite to be true. Because the opposite of money is really hard to make would be money is really easy to make. Okay?
1:06:28Because beliefs exist in pairs. So if you believe that money is hard to make, then you do not believe that money is easy to make.
1:06:37If someone said to you money is really easy to make, you'd say that's false if you believe this. So my point here is that for every belief, there is an equal and opposite belief on the other side. And so if you had an experience that confirmed that money is really hard to make, and that was like a confirming experience, then you're denying the opposite belief as well.
1:06:59If someone thought money was hard to make and you ask them if they thought it was easy to make, they'd say no. So beliefs exist in pairs and what is true on one side of the pair is false on the other.
1:07:11Okay? Whatever oh, sorry, true, it would be true on the other. So it's like, you know yeah.
1:07:19You you get my point. So whatever you believe to be true is simply the sum of your experiences and it's easy to visualize accordingly.
1:07:28Whenever you have an experience beyond the initial experience surrounding the belief, you stack a rock on either side of the scale. And what this means is that experience is either confirm or deny what you already believe to be true. So we can observe here that the component of reality in question is money and we have a belief pair.
1:07:46So if you form a belief that money is really hard to make, then by default, you also form the belief that money is really easy to make, but you form that as false.
1:07:59Does that make sense? Because this needs to be changed to first not true as far. So another example.
1:08:06Let's say that, you know, I say to let's take let's let's let's stay on this component of business. Right?
1:08:13And let's say that, you know, you believe that the this program is good. Right? And, you know, I'd I'd hope that you you feel that way.
1:08:24And so let's say that you have a belief system that, you know, the the Imperium Academy is good. Well, if someone came along to you and said, is the Imperium is Imperium Academy bad? You would say no because you've you think it's good.
1:08:38Right? And so by thinking it's good, you also think that the idea that it's bad is false.
1:08:46And so every experience you have confirms your belief, but it also denies the exact opposite.
1:08:53So all you need to understand about this and the simple simplest way to gauge this is every belief you has have has an opposite and equal. And whenever you confirm what you believe to be true, you deny what you do not believe to be true. Because if I say to you, you know, like, you know, we if if I say to you, for example, The USA moon landing was a hoax, and I think that we didn't land on the moon, which by the way I don't, then, you know, if if someone if if someone asked me, like, you know, I do you think we land on the moon?
1:09:29I'd say no. But then if if someone said to me, like, the opposite, then I'd be like, it's false. Does that make sense?
1:09:35And I know this is quite this is this is very hard. Trust me. It's hard to explain this stuff, and I know it's a bit mind bending to sort of gauge, and I'm trying my best here.
1:09:46Right? But I think you get the point.
1:09:49Any confirming experience immediately denies the opposite, and any denying experience immediately confirms the opposite. And so, you know, if I had an experience that if if if I thought money is really easy to make and, you know, I had lots of experiences that denied that statement, well, now I believe this to be false.
1:10:10And what that would mean is that to the to the exact degree that I believe this to be false, I would also believe this to be true. So every belief has an opposite and if you believe something to be true or false, then the opposite will be represented on the parallel.
1:10:27And this is how your beliefs form. Okay? They are stacked and weighed as either true or false and in pairs.
1:10:34Something important to note as well is that not all experiences are weighed the same. Some rocks are heavier than others and can significantly tip the scales. The weight of an experience depends on how much of emotion it produces.
1:10:46So for example, certain experiences carry way more emotional weight and a single experience that is extremely emotional can tip the scales. So it's easy if I just give you an example here.
1:10:59So if I pull up this this Myro board here. Right? So what we've got here is we've got an example of of football.
1:11:08So right? So what we're gonna do is we're gonna take the the component of reality of football. And for those of you who are American, I'm referring to soccer.
1:11:17Okay? Now, let's say that the belief statement in question is I'm great at football.
1:11:24Now, if you believed that you were great at football, so let's just do this. Let's say that we tick the scale here, and let's say that, you know, this this scale is really biased.
1:11:33So you believe you're great at football. What this means is the belief statement of I'm terrible at football is going to be false.
1:11:41Okay? Because if you believe you're great then, well, if someone if you if you ask yourself, are you terrible?
1:11:49You'd say, no, that's a very false statement. Right? And, you know, vice versa, the exact same thing would be true in the opposite.
1:11:56So if you thought, I'm pretty terrible at football and that's quite true, you know, and I'm really bad at football, then what's gonna happen is if someone asks you if you're great at football, you'd be like, no, that's pretty false. Right?
1:12:10And so basically, you know, let's say that you've gone through life and let's say that you've played football football as a kid. And you know, let's say that we'll take the I'm great at football example here.
1:12:20Okay? So every game that you lose as a kid is a negative experience.
1:12:27Right? So we'll zoom in here. So let's say that you've lost a bunch of games in your time and you know these are all little, you know, negative experiences.
1:12:36Right? But let's say that the amount of games that you've won as a kid, you know, are far greater.
1:12:43You know, all these let's say that you've won way more than you've lost. Right? Well, that what that would mean is that you've had way more positive experiences around this statement than you have negative ones.
1:12:55And so therefore, the weight of the positive rocks far outweighs the negative rocks, which basically means in essence that, you know, this thing would be true. But then what what's really interesting that happens is not all of these rocks weigh the same amount.
1:13:13And so let me just delete these so I can give you this example.
1:13:18So not all rocks are sort of not all experiences are are weighted equally because, you know, let's say that, you know, you're you're 13 year 13 years old and your football team, your school's football team or soccer team, let's say that it's playing in the finals, the regional finals.
1:13:38So you're already pretty good because you're on the team and you know people have confirmed this for you but you know, whatever. And let's say that you know, it's it's it's it's we've gone to extra time, so you know, we've gone past the ninety minutes and it's it's one all and it's, you know, we need one goal to win.
1:13:56And let's say that, you know, someone passes you the ball and you're running towards the the goal and you know, you're you're you're at mid you're at the mid mid mid you're at the mid part of the of the football field in the middle and you know, there's there's two minutes.
1:14:11There's let's say that there's five seconds left on the clock and everyone's watching. There's a tech there's tens of thousands of people at this this school stadium, you know, all the parents, all the girls, all of your friends, every and you've got the ball and there's two seconds to go.
1:14:27And just as just as the time's about to run out, you kick the football as hard as you can and it curves around and you expertly place the ball in the back of the net and you score the game winning goal in the last second of the game and therefore you get a trophy.
1:14:44That is an experience and that experience is gonna carry a lot of emotional weight.
1:14:51And so what that would mean is that the experience, this rock is huge. Like, you know, so what's gonna happen is you're gonna have that experience and that is gonna cause the scales to just go absolutely ballistic like, you know, this this thing's gonna have you down here.
1:15:08Okay? And you know, so the the point I'm making here is that winning a game of football is a positive experience that will confirm the belief that you are great at football.
1:15:19But scoring the game winning match in front of 10,000 people at the age of 13, that's that's like a that's worth like 20 wins, you know.
1:15:30And this this is pretty interesting as well because that you you can use this this example in relationships. So, you know, let's say that there's a girl and let's say that this girl really hates men.
1:15:43She's like, I really hate men. I don't wanna date men. They're the worst thing ever.
1:15:48I hate them. That's that. That would be a belief statement and the component would be men.
1:15:53And the opposite of that would be, I love men and, you know, if a woman hates men and that's very true, then the opposite is going to be true as well which would be, you know, the the idea of like I love men would be very false. Right?
1:16:09But let's say that this woman, let's say she hasn't had much experience with men. She maybe she's only ever had one boyfriend.
1:16:17But let's say that that boyfriend treated her really terribly, then like it was it was horrible and there was let's say there was one thing that he did that was terrible, really bad. Right? Well, what's gonna happen, you know, if if this statement is I hate men, you know, it might have been the case that just one really bad thing happened to her from a man and that was all it took to tip this scale, you know, and bring it down here.
1:16:46So the the point I'm making here is you don't need to have loads of little experiences to tip these scales. Sometimes you can just have one and so you can probably think of someone that you that you know that you don't like and the chances are is the reason you don't like them.
1:17:06Yeah. They might have done lots of little things that piss you off and annoy you, but there might just be one big thing, one big experience that charged you up emotionally and annoyed you enough to solidify that statement, and sometimes you only need one experience like, you know, let's say for example that you you have the like this this is this is the thing is these these beliefs these these scales can change.
1:17:29So, you know, let's say that, you know, you have this belief. I'm good at or let's say you have this belief, I love driving.
1:17:41Okay? And let's say that, you know, you've you've this is true.
1:17:47And, you know, you you say, I love driving. Driving is my favorite thing in the world, like, you know, I really love my car.
1:17:53I love driving. And let's say, you know, you've been driving for a few years now and you've had lots of positive experiences with driving, lot has been very exciting. You've you've watched other YouTube videos on driving and, you know, you've got a ton of positive experience on this thing and it's part of your identity.
1:18:07Like, I am a driver. I love driving. But then let's say, hopefully this doesn't happen to you.
1:18:13One day, you're driving and you crash your car.
1:18:19And in your car you have your entire family, and let's say that tragically everyone passes away and you're the only person left living. Well, that is a big negative experience.
1:18:33You might have you might have never had any negative. Maybe you've had a couple of negative experiences with driving before, you know, may maybe like someone's had road rage or something, but, you know, they're so small in comparison to all the positive ones that you're still so heavily weighed. But what can happen is the weight of all of these little positive experiences, bang.
1:18:51Big car crash, lots of people dead, now you're in prison for manslaughter and your whole everyone hates you and it's like it's the worst it's the worst experience you've ever had ever. Well, what can happen real quick is just through one experience is this scale can completely tip in the opposite direction.
1:19:09Right? And now this whole I love driving thing is false And the opposite which is I hate driving, you know, would suddenly become very true to the same level of intensity that this is false.
1:19:25And so the point I'm making here is that experiences form your beliefs. I'm just gonna get rid of these little things here and and we'll recalibrate this.
1:19:38So experiences form your beliefs but some experiences they carry a lot more weight and you know, like for example, like right now you might think that money is really hard to make and then what might happen is, you know, you might try anyway and then maybe you get your first client and your first client pays you $10,000 upfront.
1:19:59Well, suddenly that that that's a pretty damn that's a pretty damn emotionally charged experience.
1:20:05So one experience can completely turn the tables and outweigh all the previous experiences and your beliefs are totally totally subject to change.
1:20:17They really can change. You know, right now let's say, you know, oh, like, you know, I love the color of my curtains in my bedroom and then you have a girl around.
1:20:28Not that you're never gonna have a girl in your bedroom, you filthy swine. You get my point. You have a girl around and that girl, she walks into your bedroom and she says, those are the most disgusting curtains ever.
1:20:39You have the worst taste in curtains. You are the devil himself and and I hate those curtains. Well, that's an experience and suddenly you might be like, yeah, I actually do kinda hate those curtains.
1:20:49So, you know, probably should stop talking about the idea of you having a girl observe the curtains in your bedroom because let's face it, you know, you're a make money online degenerate.
1:21:00That's never gonna happen. I'm just messing with you. But you get my point.
1:21:03Okay? You get my point. Jokes aside, maybe you're not even a guy.
1:21:08I don't this even matter, but either way, this is how beliefs form and experiences happen. And what happens is is once your beliefs are formed and and, you know, these things are ever changing and your beliefs are incredibly dynamic and, you know, one day you can believe this, next day you can believe this, and then this, and this thing can just go round and round and round.
1:21:26Some beliefs are more stable than others, but they are entirely subject to just, you know, flip and switch. And remember, whatever flips and switches on this side to the the degree to which it changes on this side will also be represented on the other side as well.
1:21:41Because what you believe to be true is what you do not believe to be false. And what that means is if you think you love driving, it means that you don't you know, if you said I hate driving, well, that would be if you love driving and this was like, I really love driving, you know, it's amazing, then, you know, you would automatically say like, the idea that I hate driving is false.
1:22:04Okay? So remember, your decisions and your actions come from your belief systems and what this means is you act out your belief systems.
1:22:15Like this is a really really really really really really really important thing to understand like the most important thing. It's it's all good and well just knowing how your belief systems work.
1:22:26But the whole reason that I'm making this mindset module is to change your behavior and to change your actions because the only way that I'm gonna make you successful is if you do things that make you successful.
1:22:38But the only way that you're gonna do things that make you successful is if you believe that doing them is worthwhile and you believe that you can actually do them. So, you know, I have to get you to do sales calls and right now you might be thinking, I'm terrible at sales or like, I'm gonna suck at sales calls or sales is really hard, like, you know, salespeople are terrible.
1:22:58You're gonna have all these weird beliefs about sales when you've never done a sales call in your life, but for some reason, you've got all these beliefs about them and you think you know what they are, and you think you know what you are in relation to them purely because of some movies you've watched or because of some news articles or people that have told you stuff like, you you've got these convictions and you've got these biases and you've got these beliefs about the way the world works and the way things are, when in reality you don't really know anything.
1:23:25Like, you know, like let's say that you let's say that I I say to you, right, you're gonna have to do sales calls and immediately you say, nope. Nope.
1:23:33I'm an introvert. I'm not selling. I can't sell.
1:23:35I you know, sales isn't in my blood. No. I'm not doing it.
1:23:39It's like it's like, well, we need to fix that because you have to do them and, you know, your goal sets the conditions for the behavior that is necessary for the achievement of the goal. And, you know, if you've got all these weird belief systems about sales and appointment booking and making money and becoming successful and like, you know, if if I tell you that you've gotta set you've gotta make cold calls or you've gotta send cold emails and you're like, nope, you know, a cold email doesn't work.
1:24:04No. I'm not doing cold calls. Cold calling is not me.
1:24:06I'm, you know, I'm I'm not a cold caller. That's that's not my thing. Like that's just bullshit.
1:24:11That's just some like belief that you form because of your experiences. It's it's not real.
1:24:17Well, it is real. But what I mean by is it's not this deterministic final thing that is just has to be permanent forever.
1:24:25You can completely change it. Because if I if you if you think that right now, no, I'm I'm not making cold calls. Cold calling is not my style.
1:24:31It's not my thing. You know, everyone that cold calls is a scammer. It's not happening.
1:24:35I'm not doing it. Like, these are these are beliefs that you might have.
1:24:39Right? And if you believe those things to be true, then you're going to act them out which means that you're not going to make cold calls. And if making cold calls is imperative and necessary to the achievement of your goal and the fulfillment of your success, then you have to make cold calls.
1:24:55It doesn't matter what you believe to be true at the moment. If those beliefs are out of alignment with what you need to believe to be successful, then they've got to go.
1:25:05And this is what this is you need to understand this. You need to get and I need you to this is gonna be a sobering idea. Either you can either have your current belief systems or you can have your goal.
1:25:16You cannot have both. Everything that you believe to be true about how money works, about how success works, about how business works, All of those beliefs have got you to this point.
1:25:27You know, where you are right now like is is the sum of your beliefs.
1:25:34Like if you're broke and you're poor and you're not successful and you're bitter and you're miserable and you really wanna succeed, well, I'm sorry to break it to you, man, but that's because of what you believe to be true about the world because there's no other way it works. All of your actions and decisions have come from these bloody things.
1:25:48So why are you defending them? You know, they are the reason that you're miserable. I'm not I'm not doing sales calls, business won't work.
1:25:57Like, why have you got so much conviction and why are you so emotionally attached to these things?
1:26:03Because they they limit you and they hold you back. I know why you why you're attached to them because it's all you've got. If you don't have your belief systems and life is chaotic and stressful and they they make you feel a little bit safe.
1:26:16But trust me, we gotta get them we gotta get rid of them because right now you're acting them out so we need to challenge them. So belief feedback loops.
1:26:27So basically, we know that beliefs exist on a sort of scale of intensity and we know that they are either strong or weak and we know that they are strong or weak depending on how true or false we think they are.
1:26:42And an interesting thing that that that happens is beliefs, they they they form feedback loops. And so the reason that some of your beliefs are way stronger than others and the reason that some of them are so intense is because of feedback loops.
1:26:59So when you believe something to be true, you will automatically seek to confirm it. And this is a feedback loop, and this is called confirmation bias and it is an extremely powerful force.
1:27:11So if you believe right now in your mind, if you believe I am bad at sales and I put you on a sales call, then what's gonna happen is you're going to act out that belief, which means that you will unconsciously, intentionally sabotage the sales call just to prove that you were right.
1:27:33That's how this works. That's why we've got to fix these things.
1:27:38If you believe that cold email doesn't work and that no one's gonna respond to your cold emails and it's impossible to get appointments through cold email, then if I get you to do cold email, you're going to sabotage it to prove it doesn't work. You you must understand.
1:27:55You act out your beliefs even if it seems counterintuitive and even if you think no, there's no way. There's no way that, you know, I'd sabotage my sales calls.
1:28:05There's no way that I'd sabotage my cold email. I'm sorry mate, but if you believe it to be true, you will act it out even if it seems counterproductive or counterintuitive to you getting what you want.
1:28:16You know, it's it's like it's it's the same thing with like homeless people. Right?
1:28:22It's tragic and it breaks my heart but some homeless people, they in their mind, their belief system, they believe that they deserve to be homeless. They believe that.
1:28:31Right? And so even if you put them in a house and you you gave them shelter and food and water, they would reject it because they deserve they believe to be homeless.
1:28:42Now that's not every homeless person I'm sure and I've never been homeless so I can't exactly comment but I'm sure that that's that's the case with quite a few of them. Right? Same thing.
1:28:51If you believe that you are an alcoholic, then you're going to drink even if you don't want to.
1:28:59So, you know, this is the interesting thing about all these identities and all these beliefs like, you know, if you believe you're bad at sales. It's like, well well, why?
1:29:08Why do you believe you're bad at sales? Well, maybe when you were 14, you tried to sell a Pokemon card to someone and they said no.
1:29:19And that person said, my dad said you're terrible at sales. And then you've just you've just that was the initial experience, and then you've just sought to confirm it, and then and then that's it.
1:29:31Now you just believe these things, they're not bloody real. I mean they are real but they're not anything except from you just telling yourself that they are.
1:29:41Thing like your beliefs are only real because you believe they are real. There's nothing else to it than that. There's no other measurement.
1:29:51You know, it's like if you're if you're if you're if you're like let's say that you're overweight and you you're like, oh, I can't lose weight.
1:30:00Okay. It's impossible for me to lose weight no matter how hard I try. Bollocks, bullshit.
1:30:05That's not the objective truth because thermodynamics exists and if you put yourself enough of a calorie deficit, you will lose weight by the laws of physics and nature.
1:30:16Sure. It might be slightly harder for you to lose weight than other people, but it's not. You can't go around saying stuff like it's impossible for me to lose weight because that would mean that you're quite literally through your existence breaking the laws of physics and thermodynamics.
1:30:31Not possible. So all of these things that you believe to be true, you only believe them because you tell yourself you believe them, and then you act them out, and then your life is the way it is because you believe them.
1:30:42But then you become attached to them, and you defend them to the to the death even though they don't serve you and they hold you back and sometimes even kill you. That's all all it is. All these belief things are are just these little stories that you've told yourself, nothing else.
1:30:56That's it. That's all it is. And a positive feedback loop or also known as amplification happens when a cause creates an effect which feeds back into the cause which creates an exponential effect over time.
1:31:10So you might remember this from week one where we talked about this with with these feedback loops where, you know, we have a cause and the cause creates an effect, and what happens is the effects feeds back into the cause and, you know, we get this sort of feedback loop.
1:31:25So more cause means more effect, which means more cause which means more effect. So, you know, if you say like, if your belief is I cannot lose weight no matter what, then what's gonna happen is that's gonna create your behavior which is like kind of the effect which is you just eating more and not bothering to go to the gym which then means that you confirm your belief, you you know, you're never gonna lose weight and it just cycles and cycles and cycles and before you know it, you you die of a heart disease.
1:31:51Another example is if you're in an audience and someone starts clapping. So let's say that you're in an audience and the show finishes and someone starts clapping.
1:32:00Well, if one person claps and another person's gonna clap, which means another person's gonna clap and another and it just goes it goes round and round and round and round. And then eventually, one person stops clapping and then another person stops clapping next to them and then another person stops clapping and then it goes round, round, round, round, round until no one's clapping anymore.
1:32:17And, you know, if you work out then you're gonna eat cleaner because you don't wanna waste your workout. And if you eat cleaner, then you're gonna workout more because if you're eating clean, you wanna put the calories and the the protein to good use.
1:32:29Which means that by working out you eat clean up, but when you eat clean you workout more and then round, round, round, round. And positive feedback loops create exponential results like this. So, you know, it goes up and then down, and and it amplifies and it's at the beginning, it it won't be much and much and much, but then bang.
1:32:46And and this is how your beliefs are gonna form. So, you know, if I need to help you believe that making money online is easy, or that sales is easy or that you can get clients or that you can get results, it these are pretty hard beliefs to form, you know, that it's not it's not this isn't gonna happen like immediately overnight.
1:33:06What's gonna happen is, you know, the belief is gonna form a little bit, a little bit, little bit, a little bit, and then out of nowhere it's gonna go bang and you're gonna solidify your identity as an entrepreneur. But it can take quite a while for that to sort of ramp up and for you to really believe it. It really can.
1:33:21In the same way that, you know, if you wanna break down a really intense belief, it can it can just go suddenly just and then it takes a while for the new one to come in. And the feedback loop for beliefs both for knowledge and judgment occurs like this.
1:33:36Right? This is this is for, um, this is for self image.
1:33:40Sorry. So when when it comes to your beliefs, remember we have three types of belief. So we've got self image, we've got judgment, we've got knowledge.
1:33:50And, you know, when it comes to your knowledge and what you know, like feedback loops don't really exist because, you know, if you think about it like the knowledge that the chair exists outside, it's like I'm not gonna actively seek to confirm that that is true.
1:34:05I'm just it's just there. But when it comes to your identity and when it comes to your judgments, feedback loops are incredibly prevalent.
1:34:13So let me give you an example diagram here rather. So a human has an experience and because of that experience, a belief forms.
1:34:23And the human will now act out the belief. And what happens when we act out the belief is our actions create new experiences, and those new experiences will confirm the existing belief and the cycle repeats.
1:34:38And so, you know, you have an experience. So let's say for example that your experience is that, you know, let's say the experience that is is that you are really okay.
1:34:52I can give you an example with my personal life. So I believe I am a bad artist. So if I try to draw something, it's always gonna come out terribly.
1:35:02Anything I draw either looks like a banana or a potato or a disfigured human. And so that's my belief about myself.
1:35:10I And know where that belief came from because I I tracked it down. I had an experience when I was younger, my sister was incredibly good at art.
1:35:18So she's an incredibly talented artist. I always say my sister got all the artistic genes.
1:35:23Right? So maybe I've been genetically or, you know, psychologically loaded to be bad at art or something.
1:35:31I don't know. But when I was a kid in school, I was always like, my sister was always way better at art than me and therefore it created this contrast where my teacher would always say to me like, don't worry Charlie like, you know, art isn't really your thing.
1:35:45And I remember it. I remember it very well. I had a teacher.
1:35:47I won't I won't say her name for obvious reasons. And I remember I drew something and I thought it was really good and and she told me she was like, that's not really good at all.
1:35:55Like look at your sisters, like your sister is so much better than you and and I've just formed this belief. And so what happened is I had an initial experience that I was bad at art because an figure told me that I was, and therefore I formed a belief that was bad at art.
1:36:08And what that meant is that I now believed about myself that I was bad at art. So every time I came to draw something or do art, I would make it bad.
1:36:20And and this is the thing is you might think, well, why would you do that? But if I fundamentally believe that I'm bad at art and you put a piece of paper in front of me, the thing that I draw is going to be bad. How could I like, how am I gonna produce an incredible piece of art on a canvas or something if I fundamentally believe I'm gonna mess it up?
1:36:40Because if I believe I'm gonna mess it up, I will because I will you you act out your belief like, I can't stress this enough. What you believe to be true is like the second that someone tells me to draw something, I've already decided that it's gonna be bad.
1:36:54Not consciously necessarily, but these things aren't always conscious. But when you do things like, if you do something and it sucks, like it's probably because you believed it was gonna suck.
1:37:05Now there's an argument here like if you're doing something for the first time and it sucks and you know, but but can you do you believe you can get better and stuff? But you know, if I believe I'm bad at art and I draw something and it's bad because I believe it's bad, then what's gonna happen is I'm gonna create a new experience that I'm bad at art and it's gonna feedback and just and before you know it, you get to 26 which is where I am.
1:37:29You know, my initial experience with art happened when I was like probably four years old, five years old. And you know, if you apply twenty years of confirmation to that, I I am bad at art.
1:37:40And if I wanted to, if I wanted to put my energy into this because I know how to do this, what I could do is I could I could seek to deny that experience and I could become a brilliant artist.
1:37:54Like I truly believe that. If I wanted to, could get rid of that belief and like, you know, go and start taking some classes and you know, reaffirming that I'm good at it and start being good and then I could convince myself that I'm good at artwork.
1:38:09But the thing is with this is you need to pick your battles because you you you you can't change loads of beliefs at the same time.
1:38:18So, you know, my the last, you know, ten years of my life, I've been focused on my beliefs around my business and success and making money, whether or not I can draw is of little to no concern of me. If my immediate goal and, you know, my my vision and my mission in life suddenly meant that I had to become an incredible artist, then I would just become an incredible artist.
1:38:40And I know that that might that might sound like a narcissistic crazy thing to say, but all art is is it's just knowing where to put lines.
1:38:51Really at first principle, that's all it really is.
1:38:55It's just, you know, knowing where to place certain colors. Right? And I could probably get quite good at that if I actually thought that it was worth doing.
1:39:04And so my point here is what's gonna happen is you you have this goal and you have this objective. And with this goal and this objective, the the goal will set the conditions for what you need to be good at and what you need to believe. And all the other beliefs that you have on though you don't really need to worry about them.
1:39:21So whether or not I believe that that chair outside is is good or bad is completely irrelevant to my goal, and so I'm not gonna actively try to change my belief about the chair because I could be using my energy to change my belief about the way money works, the way hiring works, or anything like that. And so this is how people have become set in their ways or adamant or convinced of things.
1:39:44So you know when you meet like an old man, some dude in his like sixties or seventies, and like some people who are older, they they are just so incredibly set in their ways.
1:39:55And that's because the the more time that elapses with this stuff going unchecked, the the the further the confirmation gets.
1:40:06So like, you know, I'm for example, my father, I love him to bits. I love him so much.
1:40:11But my dad has formed an identity for example around like money. And you know, he worked in the financial advising space and he was a really talented sort of corporate financial advisor and he's done very well for himself and very successful career and I love him to bits.
1:40:29But my dad has a belief that like risk is bad, and not not completely, like he's not he's not completely like, you know, completely like risk free, like he won't like, you know, take risk completely.
1:40:41But if I said to my dad, like, hey, like, you know, let why don't you put, like, a $100 in Bitcoin or, in some crypto risk thing? It would never happen. Like, even if even if there was a an empirical piece of evidence that showed that it was the right decision to make, it would it would never ever happen because, you know, this is the same thing with people and, like, politics.
1:41:04Right? So let's say that you take a 70 year old woman and she's been, um, let's say that she's been a democrat her entire life, and she's always you know, since she was 20 years old, for the last fifty years, she's gone to the polls and she's voted for democrats, and, you know, her all of her social media and her news, everything's been confirmed that the democrat party are like the the gods and that that you would never vote against them.
1:41:28Even if there was a compelling objective evidence that the democrat shouldn't be voted for, she would never ever vote otherwise.
1:41:36And this is why old people, they become incredibly well, not even just old people, but people in general. The more time that elapses for when after a belief is formed, the the more solidified it becomes.
1:41:48And, you know, the the the earlier you can catch this stuff, I was very lucky because I started doing this at like 17. And so, you know, I was still kinda like a child in in some sense when I started correcting my beliefs.
1:42:00And because of that, you know, I I had an easier time sort of undoing things. And this isn't to say that you can't fix things, like if you're if you're like 50 years old, 60 years old, 70 years old, 40 years old, like you can very much change your beliefs.
1:42:13Like you you very much can. It's just gonna be it's just gonna take a little bit longer and it's gonna be a little trickier than if you were like 20. Because, you know, if if you're 40 and you believe that money is hard to make, it's you've got, you know, let's say that you take a 20 year old who believes that making money online is impossible, and you take a 40 year old who believe that who believes that making money online is possible.
1:42:36Well, that 40 year old, let's say they form that belief when they were 20, which means that they have twenty years of conditioning, you know, to to unravel. But let's say the 20 year old, they formed it when they were 17, which means they only have three years of conditioning to unravel. And so it's it's possible for anyone to change their beliefs at any time, but you just need to understand that the longer you've had the belief, the harder it is to sort of unravel.
1:42:58Never impossible. It's just gonna take a little bit longer. So every time this feedback loop repeats, a new rock is stacked on the belief scale making it stronger and firmer and harder to undo.
1:43:09So coming back to this demo here. So, you know, if you have an experience that, you know, confirms, you know, that the belief is true, then it tips it a little bit. And then by by tipping it a little bit, you're now going to confirm it again, and tip it again, and again, and and again, and again.
1:43:25And before you know it, you know, this this thing is just completely, you know, polarized like as far as you could possibly imagine on the intensity Okay?
1:43:36Yeah. And it just gets harder and harder to undo. Completely possible to undo it no matter what age you are.
1:43:42If you believe that believes believes can be undone then then it can. And the key thing here is to remember that experiences do not have to be physical to count. So this is huge because most of your confirming and most of this feedback happens in the mind.
1:44:01So coming back to the example of the kid playing football. So he scores the game winning goal, you know, and, you know, he's he's he's amazing, he's celebrated, everyone loves him.
1:44:15That kid, that's a core memory. Right? Because it's very emotionally charged.
1:44:19And so every time that that kid goes back in his mind and remembers that that experience, he's reconfirming that it happened and he's reconfirming that he's good at football.
1:44:32And so most of your confirming and most of your denying is done in the mind because, you know, when you remember something, you're you're you're sort of reliving that experience but it's very much real.
1:44:44Because if I ask you right now, you know, I bet you can think of a time where you've had a dream or a daydream or a thought, like, you know, imagine this is this is a pretty hard thing to imagine.
1:44:58Right? And I don't wanna put you under any emotional distress here, but just to drill this point home.
1:45:04Imagine right now that, you know, you're this is becoming a dark theme of this video. But imagine right now that your entire family is is just passed away, like all of them, and all of your friends and all of your family are gone.
1:45:18You're never gonna see them again. So everyone that you know, love, like, and and everyone that likes you, just gone. Just imagine what that would feel like.
1:45:27And you you probably even me just like doing it now, like I just makes me feel kind of sad. Right? And so what this means is that's not real.
1:45:35It's an imaginary experience, but you just create an experience. And what that experience did is it in some way shape or form contributes some of your belief systems.
1:45:44Because, you know, if you if you like, a belief that you probably have is I would be sad if my family died. You know, it's like so now if you imagine your family dying and it makes you feel sad, you've just confirmed that that is true. And so, you know, you you create imaginary experiences using your memory imagination and they contribute to your beliefs and most of your confirmation is done in your mind.
1:46:07So I can give you an example here because, you know, I have a self image based belief personally and that self image based belief is that I'm good at sales.
1:46:18Right? So all my life from a very young age, I have had this this thought and this belief in my head, this this statement of this articulated statement of perceived truth that I am good with people, that I am confident, that I am articulate, and that I find I'm I'm good at sales and I find it easy to persuade people and convince people to do things.
1:46:39That's just a belief that I have about myself. And, you know, I I remember this might not be the initial experience, but it it's the earliest one that I can remember because I've really tried to track this stuff back. So I'll give you the example of of how this happened because, you know, this belief I'm good at sales, it hasn't just come out of nowhere.
1:46:58This belief it hasn't it hasn't just randomly been programmed into me.
1:47:03I wasn't just born good at sales. I didn't didn't come out of the womb with, you know, a strike link trying to get the doctor to buy something.
1:47:11So for example, there was one instance when I was a child, and I remember this.
1:47:17I remember it well. Took me a while to to remember it, but I remember it. And what happened is the postman came to the door and needed some help finding an address, and I was like six.
1:47:28Right? So this is like a a pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty weird experience for a kid to have to, you know, be dealing with like an adult experience and giving directions and stuff and whatever. And I handled the situation well and my mother was was also at the door and she noticed and she encouraged my social skills.
1:47:47So I have this vivid memory of my mom sort of leaning down and saying, do you know what Charlie? That was that was really really good.
1:47:55You've got such a good way with words. You've got such a good way with people, you know, you're you're so confident.
1:48:01I'm so proud of you. And that's quite an endearing thing to hear from your mother as you're six years old because your mother's approval was basically everything to you. Right?
1:48:09And so, you know, what happened is I was like, yeah. Thanks mom, like I am pretty good with people, aren't I? And so that was like the initial experience.
1:48:17Now, some people aren't as lucky. Some people have parents that discourage and project their tyranny and insecurity onto them.
1:48:26That doesn't mean that you can't be good at sales because it's entirely possible for you to rewire your mind and beliefs, you know, using your own words and your own imaginations. But I got pretty lucky in this regard that my mom spotted that. She was there and she told me I was good at at social skills.
1:48:43And the funny thing is about this is the chances are and perhaps what happened is I might have completely botched that interaction with the postman. Like I could have been nervous and terrified and I could have completely ruined it.
1:48:56I don't know. The only thing I remember is my mom telling me I was good. So maybe for all I know, was it was bad and I could have been like because a lot of people would be like, you know, well, how does that make sense?
1:49:06Because if the initial experience is that your mom said you were good, then you must have already been good which meant you already believed you were good. But, you know, I I don't know. I can't I really wrap my head around that one.
1:49:15Right? But this is my point, you know, you you you have to start with a bias somewhere. And and so this experience was an initial experience and it registered on a very strong emotional level.
1:49:27And throughout my childhood, I'd repeat my mother's words and the experience in my mind. And so, you know, every time someone would come to the door, I'm, you know, I've got this identity, you know, built up now that I'm good with people, and, you know, I'm good with helping people and I'm good with talking to people.
1:49:44And, you know, every time I had an interaction with a stranger or someone, I would approach that interaction through the lens of my identity and my worldview which is that I am good with people. Okay?
1:49:56And, you know, it wasn't the case necessarily that I had loads of experiences in in my physical environment where I was good with people. It was just that I had a couple of experiences and I just repeated those over and over again and felt them, you know, really intensely and before I knew it, you know, I formed this identity and this belief.
1:50:15And as I stepped into adulthood and became like a teenager, I would continuously repeat this in my mind and I'd act it out too. And, you know, when talking to other people, I'd receive more of the same feedback and experiences.
1:50:26And so, you know, I remember when I was teenager in school and stuff, like, if I'd go to like a if I was like, you know, 13, 14 and I go to like a sleepover with a friend and, you know, I I remember like afterwards, like after after these sleepovers, my mom would come pick me up and, you know, the the the the the person's mom who I was whose house I was at would always say like, he was such a lovely boy.
1:50:51He's so kind. He's so good with words, he's so polite, he's so lovely like, you know, he's a proper credit to you and I'd be there like sort of like, yeah, come on then this is I know this is exactly who I am. Like, you know, I'd be seeking to confirm it.
1:51:04And then, you know, other other experiences I had when I was a teenager like in school and stuff, I had a pretty rough time at the start of school but that was that was neither here nor there. But like, you know, I remember like I would get like picked in school and stuff to do like to, like, you know, show people around the school and, like, you know, help new students out and stuff because, like, people thought I was, like, really good with people and that the teachers were, like, yeah, you're, like, you know, I trust you to, like, you know, do a good job here.
1:51:30I I just I have all these memories and all these experiences of me just being able to handle people well and being socially competent. And, you know, it the only reason that I had those experiences and that that I sought those experiences out was because when I was a when I was a really young kid, I started to believe it.
1:51:51And, you know, it it wasn't necessarily the case that I was born with incredible social skills. It was more the fact that my social skills developed because I thought that they were there, you know.
1:52:03And and this this went even further and it went even deeper because, you know, what started happening is, you know, due to exponentially accelerating confidence, I when I started taking sales calls for my business, I was able to speak with conviction conviction and and be be charming, charming, friendly, friendly, and articulate.
1:52:19And so, you know, when I picked up sales at the beginning, it it came very naturally to me. Like, don't get me wrong, I wasn't very good at sales, but the the technical side of sales and, you know, the the the the sort of objection handling.
1:52:34Like I wasn't good at sales at the beginning, but I had that sort of, you know, gift of the gab articulate ability that everyone told me I had. So when I picked up the the phone, I made these sales calls, I wasn't anxious to talk to strangers.
1:52:48I wasn't like, you know, afraid or terrified or anything because, you know, I've just I was just like, oh, it's just talking to people and I'm good at that. So, you know, I must be good at sales.
1:52:58And, you know, the mix of physical and imaginary experiences compounded over time. This this this this happened. Right?
1:53:05And I started to make money. So what would happen is, you know, I take these sales calls and over time I I started to sell and I'd make money and, you know, this basically created more experiences that further solidified this identity belief.
1:53:18And so, you know, this is the thing is my entire objective and job, like my entire objective objective with this program is just to get you one client and I don't get me wrong, I wanna get you to 6 figures, multi 6 figures, you're gonna move on to easy grow etcetera and become really successful, then I think you can do that and I think you will do that if you pay attention.
1:53:41But if I can get you just one client that that is and it's it's that like that first client, the experience is so positive and so overwhelmingly emotional that no, just getting that first client is enough to just tip your belief, you'll never give up and you'll never quit.
1:54:00Just just try just like throughout your training and throughout this this program, just try just one client. If you can get one, then, you know, it will it will completely, you know, completely shift your identity and your judgments and you'll just bang, like you're just gonna you're gonna have this massive compound effect.
1:54:17We just need one client to make that happen, but, you know, kinda how it goes. And what happens is, you know, these new experiences that I was having, you know, these these sorts of things that consistently happened would bias me even more.
1:54:32And you know, I started stacking the scales even more. So with sales, I started making money and every time I closed a client, it was like I stacked a new scale on the rock.
1:54:41Like I I started believing I was better and better at sales. And the more I believed I was better at sales, the more deals I closed which meant the more rocks that I stacked, which meant that the more deals I closed, which meant the more rocks that I stacked.
1:54:56And so, you know, this scale of I'm good at sales just started getting heavier and heavier and heavier, and every time it got heavier, I was able it was easier to sack rocks onto it. And so now, you know, fast forward eight, nine years since the start of my entrepreneurial career, like, I believe that I'm incredible at sales.
1:55:16Like, I truly believe that I am an absolute killer. Like, it's a true true true part of my identity. And the only and and it was never the case like, you know, when I started say selling, I was not very good.
1:55:29I was like, oh, I suck at sales. But then over time like I started believing that I could be good and then I got into it. And this amplified my behavior which made me more money and loop back around again and again.
1:55:39And this also works in a negative way as well. So all the firm negative because this is thing is people don't make no mistake and and do not be under the illusion of thinking that this is just about the positive stuff. The problem comes when when you start confirming and feed feeding back on negative belief systems.
1:55:55Because all the firm negative beliefs you have, the ones that feel set in stone are simply the result of experiences and belief and action feedback loops.
1:56:04So all these negative limiting beliefs you got, they're not anything. Your limiting beliefs are just statements that you've cooked up in your head, and that you've confirmed over and over again to form an identity.
1:56:13Understand, the only reason I'm good at sales is because I think I am. And the only reason I think I am is because I thought I could be, and so I started behaving it out and acting it out. They are not these beliefs are not these weird like these they're not this concrete thing.
1:56:27If you believe right now that you you're never gonna make it, then you're never gonna make it and the only reason you're never gonna make it is because you believe won't.
1:56:35It's that simple. So the question is is why does this happen and why do we let ourselves form beliefs that limit us and hold us back? So one thing that we need to go through is belief memory utility because like we need to know why this happens and we need to know why we've why why do we why we've let ourselves form these beliefs and stuff.
1:56:58Like what is the like what is the evolutionary biological reason behind the formation of beliefs?
1:57:06Because there is one. Right? And, you know, it's whilst whilst beliefs can work in our favor, can also work against us, but there's a reason they form from an evolutionary perspective because they are actually quite advantageous to our survival, and I'll explain why.
1:57:21So biologically speaking, your brain craves efficiency. K?
1:57:27Your your brain as as an organ wants is designed by evolution to be as efficient as humanly possible because the brain is a very expensive organ to run. It consumes like, you know, sometimes I think nearly like a quarter of your calories.
1:57:41A quarter of your energy is consumed by your brain. And your brain, wants to consume as little energy as possible. The reason that that we that the brain craves efficiency and that the our brain is designed to be as small as possible whilst giving us as much, you know, advantage as possible is because a more efficient brain requires less size.
1:58:02K? So think about it, like the more efficient something is, the less mass there needs to be to have it run, you know. And this means that a smaller we can have a smaller skull.
1:58:12So the whole reason that we want a smaller brain is to have a small skull because from an evolutionary standpoint, a smaller skull means childbirth is easier. Because, you know, if we have if we had huge brains then we're gonna have huge skulls and that means that, you know, the the female reproductive system needs to be as wide as possible and it just that that just that ain't gonna work, you know, it's just that's not not a possibility.
1:58:38And so because of this, our brains are far from perfect and we mentally cut corners for the sake of time and efficiency. So, you know, we wanna have efficient brains so they can be smaller, so that, you know, childbirth is easier and, you know, the the maternal mortality rate during childbirth isn't isn't significantly high.
1:58:58And you might be wondering, Charlie, what the hell? How does that have anything to do with belief systems? It's a fair question.
1:59:02Right? Look, your beliefs serve the purpose of neural efficiency.
1:59:10A belief is an incredibly efficient mechanism that your brain can use to save energy and, you know, preserve operating power. So let me explain. So here's the thing.
1:59:22It is basically impossible for you to remember and keep track of all of your experiences. You know, you simply do not have the bandwidth for it, you know.
1:59:35Like try and remember, you know, what you did on, you know, what you did five five and a half weeks ago at 6PM.
1:59:43You might have some idea if you've got a routine. Right? You might have been in the gym or whatever, but, you know, you probably can't remember that much.
1:59:49Right? But the thing is is it's really important that you do remember your experiences to some degree because your experiences, they basically inform You of how the world works.
2:00:01So if you forgot about all of your experiences, then you'd forget how the world works which means you'd be in a bit of a precarious situation. So, you know, the the your your experiences, they give you a clue as to how to survive and behave.
2:00:16So we're talking from an evolutionary standpoint here. Right? Because, you know, the the reason that you have experiences and the reason that you wanna remember them and the reason that you wanna try and like keep keep them in mind is because, you know, the reason you're alive right now is because you've behaved in a way that created your experiences.
2:00:33And so what your brain wants to do is it wants to repeat your behavior to recreate the experiences because it knows that you're safe. Because your brain will always always always prioritize your biological safety and survival.
2:00:47So your brain's main function and your brain's main concern is your immediate survival. And think about this. Right?
2:00:55Right now, you are alive. K? You might not be happy, but what this means to your brain is that you must be doing something right.
2:01:08Even if you're unhappy, you're alive and your dream your genes and your chemistry care more about that than anything.
2:01:15By just being alive, you are communicating to your brain and your body that your current mode of operation, which means your behavior and your decisions is good, and that you are fundamentally safe. So you understand your your brain's top priority is your immediate survival and your, you know, the sustenance of your biology.
2:01:33And that's the first thing your brain cares about. It it doesn't care about whether your behavior and your decisions make you poor. It doesn't care about if they make you fat.
2:01:41It doesn't care if they make you miserable or anxious, its fundamental bias is towards survival in the here and now in the present moment. And so what we can do here is you can look at this diagram and you can imagine that all of the blue squares in this diagram are experiences.
2:01:57Okay? We'll highlight this in orange. So all of the blue squares in this diagram are experiences and all of your experiences they tell you the world works in a certain way.
2:02:08So when you have an experience, it's kind of like, oh, this is the way the world works. So for example, let's say you're a caveman and, you know, you're a caveman in paleolithic times and you're living in a cave and, you know, you're what you observe your tribe and every time someone eats an orange berry, they die.
2:02:27And let's say that you've experienced this many times. Right? So, you know, you're in the cave and, you know, someone eats an orange berry and then like two minutes later they're like convulsing on the floor and they've died.
2:02:38And then a week later someone else does it and the same thing happens and you've seen that a few times. So you've experienced this orange berry death many times. And the yellow box here represents the belief that contains that experience.
2:02:51So your your beliefs are kind of like boxes that contain all of your experiences inside of them. It's like a way it's like a storage mechanism for experiences.
2:03:01And that's exactly what a belief is, is it's basically just a storage mechanism. It's the same thing like, you know, if you've got loads of rubbish in your bedroom and you've got loads of like junk lying around, well, what you might do is you might instead of having to like look at this junk and deal with this junk all the time, you might just buy boxes and then organize it and put it in the boxes, and now it's like neat and tidy and it doesn't require any energy for you to deal with or look at.
2:03:26It's the same thing with experiences. So instead of remembering every little individual experience, what happens is you bundle them all up into what we call a belief, which is just a few words, which is orange berries are poisonous.
2:03:40And this is much easier and much more efficient. It's a much easier and much more efficient way to store information. So, you know, beliefs they they are like they they just basically store things.
2:03:52It's like a store it's like a storage mechanism for all your experiences. Instead of remembering like, you know, the dozen times that someone ate a berry and died, your brain basically forgets the experiences and replaces it with a statement.
2:04:05And so as soon as the statement is solidified, the brain can let go of the experiences because it's kind of being locked in. And so, you know, instead of having to like recall that people have died from eating orange berries, you just now say that orange berries are poisonous and that kind of solidifies.
2:04:21And so instead of having to like remember like 10 different occasions of someone dying, your brain only has to remember a few words. And so what that means is all this storage capacity that it was using for to remember the experiences has now been massively cut down and replaced by something doesn't require any capacity at all.
2:04:39And this is a much easier and more efficient way to store information. And once this belief is solidified, and once you've solidified a belief, your brain can basically let go of all the experiences since they've served their purpose of basic survival.
2:04:52And for the rest of your days, you will not eat orange berries. And this is obviously a behavior that you sort of act out. Right?
2:04:58And so, you know, this is a really fascinating thing to consider because like you you you don't like you've got these belief systems, right, about the way the world works, but you don't you can't really you might be able to remember a couple of experiences that informed them, but you you know, if you've got a really strong belief, by God, you can't remember all the experiences, impossible.
2:05:17Because there's gonna be thousands of them, tens of thousands, hundreds. Right? So what what happens is is we just we just put it into a statement instead.
2:05:26And by doing that, like, your brain can just like it doesn't have to remember all these experiences anymore. And so what that means is that your brain becomes way more efficient and it means that it's it's it's in the same way that like, you know, if you wanted a computer hard drive that was capable of storing a million terabytes, it would be huge.
2:05:46Right? Because, you know, the only way that you're gonna store that much stuff is by having like a larger hard drive. So it's it's kind of the same thing.
2:05:54It's like if you if if you wanted to remember and be able to accurately recall and depict every single experience you've ever had, then your brain would have to be massive. Because just to just in the same way that to store loads of computer files, you'd need a massive like hard drive. Like, you know, if you look at like Facebook and their servers and the servers that store all of their information, like Facebook has have to buy like, huge huge acres of, like, desert, like, you know, massive massive expanses of land just to store data.
2:06:25And it's kind of, like, the more data there is and the more information there is to store, the bigger the storage mechanism needs to be. And so instead of instead of having like a massive brain and basically having a huge skull and making childbirth therefore physically impossible, you know, which would just inhibit our species, corners.
2:06:43And we take all of those, you know, these these information files which are experiences, and we zip them up into these nice little neat things called beliefs. And then we forget about the experiences, and we're left with the belief, and then we kind of forget why we have the belief.
2:06:58And the dangerous thing here is that your beliefs aren't necessarily always going to be right because, you know, right now maybe you believe that making money is hard or you believe that sales is hard or you believe that you're not gonna make it. And, you know, you you don't know why you believe these things, but that's because all the experiences that inform them have faded away because your brain couldn't be bothered to store them.
2:07:21Because if it did, then your brain does not have the capacity to store all of the all of the experiences. So you forget them, and then the only thing that you're left over with is the is the belief. That's it.
2:07:32And you can, you know, don't get me wrong, you can go back in your memory and take remember a few experiences, and you've you can recollect a few of them, you know, they're not like it's not like they're completely deleted forever, but that it it's like a it's like a shell of of what you could could have remembered. And then you might be saying like, oh, but Charlie, what about a photographic memory?
2:07:51I mean, yes, maybe there's an exception to this. I don't know. But I'm assuming that you're not a 5,000,000 IQ photographic memory idiosyncrasy.
2:07:59You're probably some normal person. Right? And you might remember this graph from earlier videos.
2:08:04Right? So if you remember, like, the the problem with with people and the problem with with humans is what happens is, like, our memory gets exponentially worse over time, but the effect of things gets exponentially better over time.
2:08:19And so the reason that your life seems chaotic and out of your control is because you have simply forgotten what experiences formed your beliefs. You can't remember what happened when you were a kid. It would simply be too much information to hold in your brain.
2:08:32You know, like you might be able to remember a few things, but like I said, you can't you can't recall all your experiences. Your brain would have to be huge.
2:08:41And so instead what you have what happens is you hold your beliefs and, you know, and and it's hard to know where they where they came from because once a belief forms, memories of the experiences just fade away because they're no longer useful to inform our survival.
2:08:56So, you know, if if for example, if I come down here, right, and I I I make loads of little folders down down here in my MacBook that you can see like, you know, and I've these these will represent experiences.
2:09:09What I can do is I can I can highlight this? Right? So there's, you know, I've got I've got all these folders here, you know, and they're all sort of I'll just keep making them just so you can kind of get this point.
2:09:19Loads of folders. Imagine these all represent beliefs and I've got to deal with these things, I've got to remember them, you know, I've got to bear them in mind, like if I wanna take right act the right actions, like all these things. What I can do and what your brain does when it forms a belief is it takes all of these experiences and it basically just compresses them into one neat zip folder like this.
2:09:42And so what it can then do is it can come along and it can delete all of these things and that way when your brain wants to know how to behave and when you want to know how to basically ensure your survival, you can just basically open the zip and then you can find all the beliefs inside of it. Does that make sense?
2:09:58Like it's it's yes. A little bit of a stretch of a metaphor, understand that, but I think you get the point. And so this is this is basically how it works and and what this means is by by doing this and by by packaging experiences into beliefs and and and and creating this sort of efficient mechanism for survival, we essentially map reality.
2:10:19And and this is called reality cartography. And when I figured this out, my this hit me like a train. When I came up with this idea, when I was thinking about I spent, like, three months brainstorming all the ideas for these first couple of mindset, these first few mindset videos.
2:10:36I I realized and it kinda dawned on me, had this epiphany that we essentially create a map of reality using our belief systems.
2:10:46And this this idea, this is just oh, some of my this is some good thinking for me. I'm not even gonna lie. This is I'm pretty proud of this one.
2:10:53So let me explain. So this goes a layer deeper because what we can imagine is that beliefs are essentially how we map reality.
2:11:02So imagine that life is one big journey from a to z, but, you know, instead of like instead of thinking it is like a start and end journey, like, you know, the the map is basically the the point of the map is to ensure our survival.
2:11:19Let me I'll explain how this works. In order to make this journey from a to z and arrive safely, we would need a map.
2:11:27So, you know, anytime that you wanna go anywhere, let's say that, you know, you're going somewhere beyond what you know, and, know, you're you're hopping in your car and you're driving across the country and you're going to a new city, well, you're gonna use satellite navigation or you're use a map. Or, you know, if you were if you were exploring the countryside and you didn't know where you were and you you use a map.
2:11:46Right? And the map would inform our decisions and actions. So what a map does is it basically tells you where to go, when, what to avoid, how to behave, and how to stay alive.
2:12:00So in the same way that if you're driving and, you know, you wanna get to a destination, your map is gonna is gonna basically it it gives you the decisions.
2:12:09That's what a map that's a map's intention. It's a map's purpose is here's where you are, here's where you want to be, and you know, at this point you have to take this turning, and then you've got to take this exit.
2:12:21And so therefore all of your decisions and actions as you're on this journey are informed by the map. And here's a very very heavy hitting idea, we map reality using beliefs.
2:12:35So in the same way that a map will inform you of of of what decisions to make on your journey, if you if you imagine that you took all of your beliefs and you you put them on a piece of paper, you wouldn't consciously realize this, but you use those beliefs to make your decisions.
2:12:53And so, you know, the way it works is is you're you you have this sort of defined destination which basically in life is just called survival, you know, living, and all of your decisions to live and survive are informed by your beliefs. And you might not realize it, but when you're not sure, and when you come to make any decisions, where do you turn to?
2:13:15You turn to your beliefs. So you follow the map. You follow your belief systems.
2:13:20It's not like a tangible thing that you can see in the same way that, you know, you could you could unravel a map on your desk and you could see it and, you know, you could you could could make your decisions and your actions based on where you are on the map and stuff, but it's very much the same thing. If you were on a journey and you got lost, you'd turn to the map.
2:13:40You know, you'd you'd look at the map and you'd you'd ask you'd look at the cartography and you'd you'd you'd like you'd conceptualize where you are, you try and figure out like where to go next and what decisions to make and what turns to take. And the map would help you find your place in the world and navigate to the next place you need to go.
2:13:57And that's what beliefs do and that's how they work. They are navigational tools.
2:14:03Reality is like a massive expanse of darkness.
2:14:09Right? It's like it's like this huge big it's just acres and acres of chaos.
2:14:15And what beliefs allow us to do is they allow us to discern the chaos, understand how it works, and know how to navigate through it. That's that's what a belief basically does.
2:14:27It's we package reality into information which creates beliefs and then we use those beliefs to navigate reality and know how to behave.
2:14:37And the whole key and the whole point here is that you're alive, you're surviving, your heart is beating, which means on a biological level, on a genetic level, your brain and your body trusts your belief systems on a on a level because they've they've ensured your survival up until this point.
2:14:59And this is why you act them out. This is why you you act them out is because you're alive, which means that what you're currently doing is keeping you alive.
2:15:12And therefore, like, of course, you're gonna act them out.
2:15:15Of course, your body and your mind is gonna fight to the death tooth and nail to defend these things and, you know, give a center them through action because they're keeping you alive. And you might be thinking like, well, what the hell does me thinking sales is hard have anything to do with my basic survival? That's not the point.
2:15:31The point is that when we were evolving and when we were when we were on the African Plains and we were coming out of Africa, you know, hundreds of thousands of years ago and we were basically, you know, evolving in tribes on in in in like the in Africa and stuff and in all these evolutionary ideas, the only components of reality that we knew and understood were ones that immediately impacted our survival.
2:15:56Like, think about this for a second. If you're if you're if you're evolving, you know, on on the plains of Africa in a tribe, the only things that you're gonna come into contact with are things that you need to have to survive.
2:16:08You know, the the the concept of democracy or, you know, the concept of like money or sales or, you know, Interstellar the movie, like, these things they weren't they didn't really exist. They the only thing that we had was survival.
2:16:22And so, you know, our our body's primary intent and primary bias is that of survival. And this is why we form belief systems, it's because they help us survive. The issue is this is a very archaic system and obviously, you know, we've evolved and now we've got technology and medicine and stuff and, you know, we don't necessarily, you know, need this thing anymore.
2:16:48I mean, we kinda do right, but, you know, you've got this sort of what would you call it? You've you've got this sort of, like, evolutionary, like overlap.
2:17:00It's kind of like it's an it's an old operating system in a very new world, but you have to use it because we've got nothing better because we it takes a long time for these things to evolve. And so beliefs basically help us navigate the vast world of reality. We use them to get our bearings and know where to go next.
2:17:18And through beliefs, we package up reality into a neat, tidy, easily understood phenomenon just like a map.
2:17:25K? In the same way that, you know, if you if you were like a cartographer, you know, let's say that you were, you know, exploring America in the sixteen hundreds, you know, and we have people exploring America and stuff, seventeen hundreds whatever.
2:17:39Like what would happen is, you know, you you'd walk through chaos, which is basically, you know, if you're walking through land you've never been through before and that no one's ever been through before and you're exploring it, you're exploring chaos and along the way, you've got a piece of paper and a pen and you're essentially writing down what you've observed and, you know, you're mapping out the territory.
2:17:59That's what you do when you when you when you form beliefs is you're exploring the unknown, you're exploring chaos and the thing the the landmarks that you would use to get your bearings or, you know, the the valleys, the mountains, the trees, the forests, the oceans, the lakes, the the things that you use as your points of reference to know where to go next and where you have been to find your way home are basically belief systems.
2:18:23And this idea, when this hit I was like, holy shit. This makes so much sense because I've I've known this for a while, but it wasn't into it took me, like, it took me, like, you know, two months of of critical thinking and doing nothing, by the way, but critical thinking to figure this thing out. You know, we we believe we know what is where.
2:18:40We believe we know how things work, and we use our knowledge of the map to make decisions to move through the world. To our body and brain, the map works because at the present moment we're alive. And this is the thing is like, you might think like, well, this doesn't make sense because let's say right now that you're overweight and so let's use a better example.
2:19:00Let's say right now you're addicted to smoking and your identity is that I'm a smoker and therefore you have a belief that, you know, you're a smoker. And you might think like, well, how the hell can my body and my mind accept the belief of smoking because I know that smoking kills me?
2:19:15Well, you've got to realize that consciously you understand that smoking kills you, but the only thing that your body and your brain can comprehend is the present moment. Like, you your body and your brain is like is like the animal sort of component of you, and animals can't really comprehend the future. Like, they can to a slight degree where you might get a squirrel that buries nuts because it knows that it's gonna be another season, and you might get bears that will hibernate to save energy for the future and stuff like, you know, animals can can slightly comprehend the future, but your biological structures, they only care about like the here and now.
2:19:51And this is also why people get so addicted to like high dopamine things like like junk food. It's like, you know, all your brain cares about is immediate survival. And so if it's got the option to like consume like your brain doesn't have the context of you the the fact that you're in a technologically advanced civilization.
2:20:09Like, if there's a massive burger loads of, you know, fat and carbs and sugar in front of you, like, the reason that you crave that and that you can binge eat that like a past time is because your brain wants to like store as much energy as possible in in the event that in the future the the food's not as available to you.
2:20:26And so, you know, all of your beliefs, all these things that you form, form because of this. We we map reality using beliefs.
2:20:34Like, you know, you you go through life and you go through reality and all you're doing is you're exploring the unknown, you're exploring chaos. What do you think you're doing right now watching this video? You didn't know any of this information before you watched it and what's happened now, now that you're receiving this information and creating these experiences is just by watching this video, you formed a ton of beliefs about how things work.
2:20:55Like, you know, you now probably believe that we map reality and you've just you've just formed a belief.
2:21:02You had an experience, you received information and, you know, instead of like, you know, trying to like recall all the experiences that would confirm this, you've just you've just created a statement. Right?
2:21:12If you believe me. Now, so if we keep following the map and abiding by it, we will stay alive and have a stronger likelihood of reproducing and passing on our genes.
2:21:22That is the crux of it. The reason that you act out your beliefs, and the reason that you follow these things and the reason that you are so emotionally attached to them is because the beliefs that you have guarantee your immediate survival.
2:21:35Because your brain and your body isn't it's not smart. It doesn't have the context that the the beliefs might be bad or good.
2:21:41The the brain and body, like, this sort of genetic mechanism, this survival mechanism, this evolutionary idea, it doesn't it doesn't care if you're unhappy. It doesn't care if you're anxious. It doesn't care if you're sad.
2:21:52It doesn't care if you're miserable. It doesn't care about how you feel or how things are going.
2:21:57It just cares that things are going. Like, you know, the only thing that this cares about is that there is something there and that you're alive. And this is a this is a a reproductive bias.
2:22:09This is there's a book called the selfish gene by Richard Dawkins, which explains this incredibly well and explains why we have such a bias towards survival. Like, you know, it happens.
2:22:20And so when you're when you're you know, you might not want to act out your beliefs and you might not be a big fan of your beliefs, but to your biology, your beliefs up until this point have kept you alive and therefore, you know, we keep them. And like I said, it doesn't matter that you're believing about things that have nothing to do with survival, like whether or not I like my headphones isn't gonna inform my immediate survival, but to your body and your brain, it uses the same mechanism to deal with these higher level more advanced things than it would with things like snakes and shelter shelter and, and, you know, where's the water going to be, and where's the food gonna come from, and, you know, which member of the tribe is most likely to try and kill me, and, you know, where's the where's the buffalo gonna go next to migrate to, and, you know, what what flowers are poisonous, and where should we put our camp, and how do we light a fire, like all of these
2:23:08things, all these components of reality that determined our survival, like our brain now uses the same survival mechanism and projects that onto, you know, modern components that that don't inform your survival, but your brain can't contextualize the difference. And whether you realize it or not, you have a map.
2:23:25Everyone has a map. They just don't realize it and they don't know they're following it. You must realize that your decisions, your actions, and your behaviors are not these random things that just happen.
2:23:36You are you you have a map. They are produced and I'm gonna walk you through this in the next video as well on how to we're really gonna come to terms with the map and and define it. But, you know, they are produced by your beliefs and you are following a map through your life and you've built it without even realizing it.
2:23:52You know, if you don't believe me just like take a second here and imagine a world for a second without beliefs.
2:24:02Imagine imagine just having no belief systems about anything. Imagine you had no judgment based beliefs and you had no self image beliefs. The only beliefs you had were your knowledge based beliefs of what's actually there.
2:24:13Well, you wouldn't be anything and you wouldn't know what anything means. You wouldn't know how to treat things. You wouldn't know how to act.
2:24:20You wouldn't know where to turn. You wouldn't know what direction to go in. You know, just like someone trying to find someone without a map, you wouldn't know anything.
2:24:28That you'd have no understanding of anything, it'd be chaos. And as you know, beliefs can be represented as scales tipped by strength and weakness. And you have a scale for everything you believe.
2:24:40So, you know, coming back to this scale idea, you know, you have a a scale, you know, for do you like baked beans?
2:24:48So maybe you don't like baked beans and that's a, you know, the the idea of I like baked beans is false. And so it's tipped, it's it's got it's stacked in the false direction. And what this means is you've had experiences that confirm that you don't like baked beans.
2:25:02And, you know, another belief that you might have is I'm gonna buy easy grow or I'm not gonna buy easy grow, you know, could be either. And, you know, this thing could be tipped in this direction or this direction. And, you know, the other thing as well is there are things that you haven't observed or things that haven't come into your awareness are neutral.
2:25:21So you have neutral beliefs about stuff that you don't understand. So I'm not even gonna try and pronounce this but the I will for your fear of amusement.
2:25:30The sick hote alenia something, is that cute?
2:25:35Well, this is like a little weird insect or something from what I understand from I think I just randomly googled it. But is it cute? Well, you don't know if it's cute or not because you've never experienced it before.
2:25:46Therefore, the scale is perfectly level. It's neither true nor false because you don't know yet. And the same thing here could be, what are your thoughts on the campaigns of Shivaji?
2:25:56Well, you probably don't know who Shivaji was. He was an Indian king and an Indian conqueror I think from the sixteen hundreds and, know, you don't have any thoughts on this, that you you don't have an opinion or a belief around the the campaigns of Shivaji because up until now you didn't even know the bloke existed.
2:26:14But for things that you do know exist, you have beliefs. So, you know, the belief I love communism could be false. Was Hitler morally wrong could be true, you know.
2:26:23Do you have a mother? This is a binary knowledge based belief. Yes, you do.
2:26:27Because, you know, hell if you if you how the hell were you born without a mother? Are elephants real?
2:26:34Well, you know, maybe you think that's completely false. Right? So whether things are real or not, like, knowledge based beliefs are binary, which means they're represented in this binary sense as either being completely true or completely not true.
2:26:46But identity based beliefs and judgment based beliefs are always based on a scale of intensity. And here I'm about to show you something, and this kind of brings everything together.
2:26:58Bundled together so when you take all of your beliefs and you put them together, they create your paradigm. K?
2:27:06So up until this point, we know that, you know, we know how beliefs form, we know they get exponentially reinforced, you know, we know that they're based on a scale of truth, we know they're paired as parallels, we know that, you know, experiences create beliefs and we either confirm or deny them, and if we confirm one belief, we deny the opposite belief.
2:27:26We know that, you know, it happens in the mind and your imagination can confirm beliefs and deny beliefs and all these things. We know that, you know, beliefs serve the purpose of creating efficiency and we effectively map reality using our belief systems.
2:27:40And let me give you something. Let me let me give you a diagram. Bang.
2:27:43Here we go. Definitely didn't take me two months to think this bloody thing up. That was funny.
2:27:50It's you know, it's interesting with program recording, and you'll you'll learn this if you ever sell information, which I'm sure you will in the future if you when you become successful or successful enough is it's the the the whole the whole thing with with this with this info game and selling information and helping people is taking ideas that are incredibly, incredibly complicated and making them as simple as humanly possible.
2:28:13That's the job. And here, what we have is a map of subjective reality.
2:28:20This is a this is this is this is something worth considering, and this is something worth screenshotting and really thinking about for a good five minutes here. Your paradigm is the sum of every belief you have and beliefs are split into these three categories, knowledge, judgment, and self image.
2:28:37You have a lot of beliefs, many millions. All of these beliefs put together serve as your map for reality. You'll use this map to make your decisions and you'll take your and take your actions.
2:28:48It informs your every move and your life and reality is the product of your paradigm. Everything from whether you like the transformers movie franchise to the shape of the swimming pool you'd want in your home, everything is stored here and this is what it looks like.
2:29:04And so what we can see is your paradigm is sort of split into these into these three components where you've got all of your based beliefs in one component, you've got all of your self image based beliefs in another component, and you've got all of your judgments in in here. And if we added your knowledge and your judgments together, this will create your world view, and if we take all of the beliefs in your self image, then this obviously creates your identity.
2:29:26And if I just zoom in here, what you can basically see is that we've this is obviously not a complete representation because there are going to be literally millions, maybe tens, hundreds of millions of beliefs that you might have.
2:29:38Right? Maybe not hundreds of millions, but there's a lot. And and it's basically this, your paradigm is just all of these scales that have just been stacked.
2:29:49Now your knowledge based beliefs will technically all be binary, so this isn't entirely accurate. You know, they'd they'd all be like binary, like complete true or false. But this is how it works.
2:29:58All all all your paradigm is, all your identity is, all your self images is just a collection of beliefs of just these scales that have just been stacked through your experience.
2:30:11How cool is that? And then this essentially becomes your map. So whenever you whenever you're thinking about making a decision or taking an action in life, what happens is, you know, you don't realize this but unconsciously you turn to the map and you use these scales and you use these little, you know, levers of intensity to inform what you should do and how you should behave and how you should act.
2:30:34And how and and then you take the action and the behavior and that basically creates your life and, you know, this is I can't stress it enough. This is what your life is. It's just a bunch of scale.
2:30:47And, you know, if you zoom in you can see them all here. Right? So, you know, inside of the self image thing, you know, how much do you like the the the the brand Ray Ban?
2:30:56How good are you at swimming? You know, what's your favorite place to go as a kid? You know, what was your what was your what was your experience like in primary school?
2:31:06What was your what was name of your first girlfriend? Like, all of these, like, beliefs, everything that you believe to be true is static.
2:31:14And this doesn't do it justice because this would be like a complete sea. You know, you wouldn't there wouldn't be any clear space, but you get the point. And so that is how you visualize a paradigm.
2:31:24And when you come to observe the world and you come to look at something, you you look at it through these beliefs. It's such a powerful idea. It it's just such a it's just such a clear simple way to see how you see.
2:31:41And so your subjective reality, the the way that you perceive the world and the way that you think the world exists and is is simply this. Every experience you have, you know, and it's forever changing as well like, you know, every experience you have every time you create a new belief or or, you know, every experience you have shifts your paradigm.
2:32:02It change it slightly changes, you know, the intensity of the belief systems that you have. They can get stronger. They can get weaker.
2:32:09You know, you can create new ones. It's it's it's a miracle and, you know, this is this is an evolutionary phenomenon.
2:32:16It's it's it's a this is an efficiency machine, you know, and and it took me a lot of thinking to to figure this thing out. I mean, oh my goodness.
2:32:24Like, once I once I sussed this out, I was like, yeah.
2:32:29This makes sense. Right? And then what's interesting is, you know, we we can once again, we can use this to to to visualize how paradigms work on another level as well.
2:32:40So this is macro and micro paradigms. So certain components of reality will contain more beliefs than others, And, you know, your paradigm and, you know, with your knowledge and your judgments and stuff, like, it it there's lots of components of reality that you've observed, and there's lots of components of reality that, you know, you you you you use to see the world through, but some way more than others.
2:33:02And so beliefs can be grouped and bundled into categories, into components, you know. So, like, for example, if if you had, like you know, you you might have a category in your in your mind of ex girlfriends, and, you know, everything you believe to be true about your ex girlfriends or something.
2:33:17And, you know, this depends on how you orient your life and structure your worldview and identity. So what we can see here in this example is is is the paradigm let's say this is the paradigm of a university student who did their dissertation, which is their, you know, final big essay on Socrates.
2:33:36So Socrates, if you don't know, was an ancient Greek philosopher. So let's say this person's like 23 years old, and they just spent the last two years of their life studying Socrates. Well, what this means is, you know, a huge component of their paradigm is going to be made up of this.
2:33:51So if I in, I can show you. So let's say this is someone's paradigm here. Right?
2:33:57If I just pull this up. And so this is paradigm level one. So let's say that this person is from The United Kingdom, they take care of their health, they love their relationships, they they they they're a student of biology, they're religious, they love science, they spend a lot of time in nature, they study a lot of philosophy.
2:34:14Let's say they like psychology and their finance and history. Like, all these other little things here, these represent components of reality.
2:34:22So this this little component of reality here could be the movie Titanic. Let's say this person's, like, favorite film is Titanic. Right?
2:34:29And they watch Titanic all the time. Well, it's gonna be a little component of their of their reality. Right?
2:34:34And what you'll find is that certain certain components or certain parts of reality will dominate the paradigm. So for me, my my sort of quote unquote dominant, you know, like the the most dominant the most dominant component of my paradigm is gonna be business.
2:34:55And, you know, it's it's gonna be marketing and and and sales and and all these things that I do, and that's and, you know, I see the world primarily through the lens of business and marketing. But, you know, if you took someone if you took someone and who and, you know, they'd been a professional ice skater for their entire life and they'd been an athlete, then they would see the world through the lens of someone who's like an athlete, an ice skater.
2:35:18But what what's interesting about this is when you take a dominant component of your paradigm, it it breaks down into sub components.
2:35:27Because, you know, let's say that this person here is a university student who studied history. History. And let's say they studied history.
2:35:34Right? And so for them, you know, for for a historian, like, the biggest component of their paradigm, of their world view is history because it's what they've studied the most.
2:35:45Like, if you're wondering by the way, like, what how what constitutes the size of a different component is how many beliefs you hold about it. So, you know, if this person has spent the last, you know, their entire life studying history, then what that means is a vast majority of their belief will be about history.
2:36:03And they'll have way more beliefs about history than they would about biology. Right? And so, you know, depending on how many beliefs you have about something depends on the amount of, you know, paradigm surface area that that thing will consume.
2:36:18And the cool thing is that this breaks down into into little into micro levels. And so if this person's primary, you know, paradigm paradimal lens is history because they have a lot they have more beliefs about history than anything else, then what we can see is it it breaks down into lots of different things.
2:36:35So maybe they've studied the middle ages and the early modern era and the modern era, which are different periods of history. But let's say that most of their historical knowledge comes during ancient times. So, you know, let's say their degree was done on, you know, antiquity, which is like 600 to April.
2:36:52So like a long time ago. So, you know, a couple of thousand years ago, if not more. And, you know, in in their history paradigm, they've got other, you know, these little x's represent other group like groups of of other groups of belief systems.
2:37:05Right? But they might not be as significant. And then so, you know, if ancient times is the is the primary, you know, belief group of the history, you know, component, then we can break that down.
2:37:17And so maybe they've got beliefs, you know, maybe they've got lots of knowledge and beliefs about the Persian empire or the Roman empire or the the history of stoicism. Right? But then let's say that the the dominant, you know, component of the ancient times belief group for them is ancient Greece.
2:37:31And then, you know, we could take ancient Greece and extrapolate it, and maybe they know a lot about Athens, and a lot about Alexander the Great, and some stuff about, you know, different, you know, Greek colonies and like, you know, the Peloponnesian war. But then but then, because this person did their final essay on Socrates, well, the dominant, you know, belief group of their ancient Greek belief group would be Socrates because they spent their time studying him.
2:37:56And so what this would look like if we if we extrapolate this out is, you know, they've got a mass they've got lots and lots of beliefs and knowledge and information and, you know, statements of perceived truth about Socrates. And so what that means is that when this person is going through life, and when this person is, you know, is is is working their way through the world and, you know, look using their map of using their belief maps to make decisions, a lot of the way they're gonna see the world is through what we would call a Socratic lens.
2:38:25So if you if you say you if you say you've got, like, Socratic reasoning, that's the the method of reasoning that Socrates would use. And so if you studied the man relentlessly, then you're going to and, you know, you studied him and you believe his ideas and you believe his philosophies and you believe his knowledge, then all of your belief systems are Socratic.
2:38:43Right? At least the ones relevant to Socrates. So when you come to observe the world, maybe you're looking at a problem, you you might look at that problem through the same lens that Socrates did.
2:38:54And this is the whole point of mentorship and learning information and and and stuff, is my job here by teaching you is to give you my paradigm. Like, the the the fastest way for me to help you make money and grow is for me to essentially impart my belief systems onto you.
2:39:12Not in, like, some dogmatic ideological ideology ideologically charged political way where I want you to agree with me on everything, But what I'm doing is I'm trying to give you information that you then accept as true, which then informs your decisions and actions to become successful. And so, you know, this basically applies for everything, but wherever you've got the most beliefs, like the biggest, you know, the the most volume of beliefs is is going to influence your paradigm massively.
2:39:39Right? And so, you know, for me, like mindset is a really big component of my paradigm and I spend a lot of time, in case you can't tell, thinking about mindset and, you know, drawing up belief systems about mindset and observing it and trying to understand it, and therefore when I look at the world and I look at a problem, I look at someone's life and I try and fix that problem or I try and act out my my map, what what's happening is I will I will use my mindset paradigm to do that.
2:40:08Does that make sense? And so, you know, your paradigm exists on many different levels and, you know, all of these little all of these little yellow circles are basically just a group of beliefs about the thing.
2:40:21So when I say to some when I say to this person like what does Socrates mean to you or what do you believe what like what do you believe to be true about Socrates, they would just list off all the things they believe to be true. And so, you know, this is what I mean by having a map is, you know, you you would you would you see the world through your belief systems and they are basically aggregated into these little things.
2:40:42Right? So the person above would see the world through a Socratic lens because there's a large bias in their paradigm towards Socrates. A huge, you know, proportion of their belief systems, you know, if if represented as a percentage is, you know, is based on on history, which is then based on ancient times, ancient Greece, Socrates, and and so on so forth.
2:41:00Right? I hope that makes sense. So some examples some examples here.
2:41:07For example, here are some big paradigm biases that I have. Right? So first of all, I am British, which means that I I come from The United Kingdom, and what that means is that, you know, I have a British paradigm.
2:41:20So, you know, a lot of my a lot of my belief systems and perceptions and perspectives come from being British and and, you know, the culture of of of Britain and the language and, you know, what what we believe to be true as a as a as a culture and a society and a country, etcetera, etcetera.
2:41:36So it's a you know, you can be heavily biased by the country that you're from. You know, because if you're from The United States Of America, then, you know, a a big sort of proponent of your paradigm, you'll you'll see the you'll see the world through the lens of, freedom because, you know, one of the core cultural, you know, phenomenon, like, manifestations of of American culture in society is the idea of freedom.
2:41:57In the same way that if you're American, then you'll see the you'll see the world through the constitution. And if the constitution isn't isn't isn't isn't isn't abided by, then you might think it's bad. You know, you get my point.
2:42:08Another example, you know, I'm a brother. So I have a younger sister and a younger brother, which means I'm a big brother, which means I have lots of beliefs formed about how to be a brother and what it means to be a brother, and, you know, I I can I can look at the world through the brotherly lens?
2:42:23If if you don't have any siblings, then you can't do this because you've never formed any beliefs about what it means to be a brother or a sister because you don't you you've never done it before. Same thing for marketing or psychology or evolution, natural selection, like, you know, all these things that I've I've spent a lot of time studying, I see the world through and, you know, they really help.
2:42:42And when I look at the world, these are some of the primary lenses through which I look. I have a lot of beliefs formed around these things and they are primary components of my life.
2:42:52Naturally, the more time you spend with a component of reality, the more beliefs you form around it and the more of your paradigm it takes up. So my point again here is that like these these little circles are aggregations of belief systems and the more belief systems you have about something, the more of your paradigm it takes up.
2:43:10Simple as that. For example, as of recording this, I do not have children. So I do not see the world as a father.
2:43:18Like I can't really I like my my dad for example is a follow-up and a pretty bloody good one at that and, you know, and and he he sees the world like as a dad. So when, you know, not not everything.
2:43:31He's not gonna he's not gonna like, you know, mow the lawn as a father. I mean, maybe maybe he would. I don't know.
2:43:37Things get a bit weird when you start talking like that, but like I I don't see the world through the lens of of fatherhood. I don't have any kids right now. So it's it's not something that, you know, but as soon as you have babies, as soon as you have kids, your perspective shifts, and you start forming lots of beliefs around what it means to be a dad, and, you know, your relationship with your children, and that will, you know, your your paradigm will shift, and is is a forever moving, you know, dynamic affair.
2:44:02Another example, I've never been to China. So, you know, I don't see the world in the same way that a Chinese person would. In the same way that I've never known homelessness, homelessness, homelessness.
2:44:13I've never known homelessness. Doesn't sound right, but you know what I mean. And what that means is I don't see the world through this lens.
2:44:20So someone that's been homeless before will see the world slightly differently to me because because of their experiences. And the thing is, this is a big thing.
2:44:30This is a big big thing. You know you have a map and you know that your map you you know, this is the these diagrams by the way are my attempt to sort of demonstrate that, you know, it is it it's not like a traditional map where like you've got like turnings and and landmarks and stuff, but you know, you can very much map your paradigm in these ways and understand how it works and you you know, you use it to make your decisions and and your direction.
2:44:54But just because you have a map doesn't mean it's right and this once again, this idea this is a this is a bloody heavy hitting thing.
2:45:05Right? Just because you have a map doesn't mean it's right. So imagine like, imagine that, you know, you you you are an explorer in the seventeen hundreds and you're from Spain.
2:45:17And I don't know why you'd be from Spain. You're from Spain and, you know, you take a ship across to America and you know, let's say that you sail up the Gulf Of California.
2:45:28Now, if you're following a map that is inaccurate, then you're gonna get lost.
2:45:34It's as simple as that. And the point here I'm making is that not all of your maps maps aren't always right.
2:45:44If I go on Google Maps right now, it's gonna be right. You know, we've got satellites, we've got lots experience, we've mapped the world pretty well, we know what's there, we know what's going on.
2:45:53But sometimes, you know, someone could give you a map of, you know, of of of like the countryside and they could have got it wrong, and they could have mapped it wrong, and they could have they could have misunderstood or misjudged what they saw. And the same thing is true with your belief systems and your paradigm. Is just because you have one doesn't mean it's right.
2:46:09And this is this is where things get a little bit interesting and where we kind of come full circle with this because, you know, we're gonna talk about right and wrong.
2:46:17Because if if if it's it's really this simple. If you want to be successful and if you want to make a ton of money, then all you have to do is figure out what the right thing is.
2:46:28Like if you if you could just be right every single time. Imagine if you could just constantly make the right decisions and constantly take the right actions to be successful, well then guess what happened, you'd successful. I don't think anyone can really argue with that.
2:46:39It's impossible to argue that. And we know that actions and decisions come from belief systems. And so all we have to do is figure out what the right belief systems are to have and program program them into our brains, which I will show you how to do in later videos, and then you'll become successful with time.
2:46:56So, you know, by this point, you understand how beliefs work. You understand their nature and where they come from, and this all leads to the ultimate question of how do we know what beliefs are right and what beliefs are wrong? Because it really is about this.
2:47:09It's just about figuring out what you need to believe, and then like trying to adopt that belief and then your actions and your behavior will change and then your life will change. It's entirely possible to change your beliefs and we will talk about this. But you can believe anything you want, you just have to reprogram your brain and we're gonna talk about the reprogramming thing and you're gonna you're gonna get this down to a t because I've done it before and know how it works.
2:47:31But the question is like, what? Like, this is a big question is, what should you believe? How do you discern right from wrong And how do you know what is good and what is bad?
2:47:41Like, you know, it's it's like it's all good and well-being me telling you like there's just you just need to believe a certain thing and be in a certain way. And don't get me wrong, I'm not gonna tell you to, you know, we're not gonna go beyond like business here.
2:47:52I'm not gonna tell you what God you should believe in. I'm not gonna tell you what you should eat. I'm not gonna tell you, you know, who you should love and none of that.
2:48:00I'm just gonna talk to you about money and and business and I'm gonna stay well within, you know, the boundaries of of this program and just basically making you successful. We're not gonna get in I'm not gonna try and force my political belief systems on you, which to be honest, I don't really have any anyway. I'm not gonna this is not like a dogmatic ideological cult where I'm gonna try and like brainwash you to to to to, you know, around my way of thinking for my commercial gain.
2:48:23It's not the case. This is I promise you this was a good intention and you can decide. So when it comes to beliefs, you know, some beliefs are right and some beliefs are wrong.
2:48:35And when it comes to right and wrong, there are two different forms of right and wrong. Now I'm not talking about the moral or the ethical right or wrong. So for example, you know, if if like there's there's an argument around like the death penalty for serial killers.
2:48:53Is that right? Is that wrong? You know?
2:48:55Well, I'm not I'm not talking about this moral ethical debate. What I'm talking about when it comes to right or wrong are two things, factual alignment and goal alignment. And so the word alignment, what this means is whether or not a belief is aligned with either objective reality or your goal reality.
2:49:16Okay? And this this is very this is a very powerful idea to have because if we can figure out, like, what do you need to believe to be true in order for you to become successful?
2:49:28That's the question here. Right? And what this means is there because your beliefs are fully within your control and I'll I'll once again, I'll demonstrate this to you in in future videos, you can change your beliefs.
2:49:38So all it really becomes about doing is just defining what you need to believe and then believing it. Right? And like I said, I know I keep saying this, but I I will show you how to do this.
2:49:46This is not just some theory crafted thing, but in order for me to do this properly, you need to understand this stuff first. So this because we've got a couple different types of belief, there's a nuance here.
2:49:56So alignment, like I said, is is whether or not a belief is aligned with either the true nature of the world or the nature of the world you want. So when it comes to a knowledge based belief, a belief is only right or wrong in so far as as if it's in alignment with objective reality which is what is actually there.
2:50:15So remember knowledge based beliefs are basically your belief about what actually exists. Before you've judged it, before you've identified with it, like for example, there's a chair, there's my mother, you know. I don't know if you could argue that's a self image based belief because you're using the word my, but if you look on your desk right now, your table, and you see something, you say it's there, that's a knowledge based belief.
2:50:34You believe it's there. Right? You believe it's true.
2:50:36And alignment from a knowledge perspective is when is what you have observed to be there actually there?
2:50:45So if I said right now that there's a chair outside, but there wasn't a chair outside, like if the true objective nature of the world was that there was no chair, well, then I'm not in alignment with the objective nature of reality. Right?
2:50:55And so, you know, that's how that works. I'm gonna give you some examples to I'm gonna give you a diagram and this will all make sense, promise.
2:51:01Just bear with me. So that's the thing, that's the case for judgment for knowledge based beliefs. However, when it comes to I'll just color this in blue.
2:51:12So when it comes to judgment and self image beliefs, like how do you determine if an if an if an identity or a judgment is right or wrong?
2:51:22Because technically from the from an actual objective standpoint like all right or wrong means from an objective standpoint is is does something exist or not?
2:51:35Because if I said to you like, you know, I am an anxious person, well, what constitutes whether that's a right or a wrong statement?
2:51:45Like, because the statement creates the correctness, if that makes sense. And so, you know, if I said like, if I if I if I made a judgment of, you know, like I've I've got water on my desk, right, and the water's sparkling.
2:51:58So if I if I said this water is fizzy, you know, I can just I can shake it up, you know, I can open it, I can drink it, and I can have that sensory I can have that sensory experience, and I can I can now say that that water is fizzy, you know?
2:52:14And technically, I'm right because the water is fizzy, but there's a scale like how fizzy is it, you know. So let me explain this. So judgment and self image beliefs are only right or wrong in so far as they're in alignment with goal reality which is what you want.
2:52:29So when it comes to judgment and self image beliefs, there is no such thing as right or wrong. Okay? There is no I know it's just I know this is like what the hell, but just give me a second.
2:52:40You can make the moral and ethical arguments, but technically they can't be right or wrong because they are subjective. They are true or false to the person who has them.
2:52:49So, you know, if I if I said to you right now, I am a failure, right, you would probably look at me and say, Charlie, you're wrong.
2:52:59You're not a failure. But I could genuinely think I am. Because to me, maybe being like a multimillionaire or being worth multi a figures is still a failure.
2:53:07And so the point here is that the second that something enters the realm of judgment or identity, it is up for interpretation. Which means that like people can disagree with you, which means that whether it's right or wrong or not depends on whether or not it's right or wrong for them.
2:53:23Does that make sense? So if if I saw a man that was, you know, six foot five and I said he's tall, then another person might come along and say, actually he's short because that person could be seven foot tall.
2:53:36Right? And so, you know, it it that that said, there is a way and there is a very clever way to measure whether judge judgment or self image beliefs are right or wrong.
2:53:48And this is whether or not it supports your goal reality for manifesting. So the point I'm making here is the the the thing that we orient right or wrong against. The the sort of the Polaris star, the mechanism that we use to gauge and determine if a belief is right or wrong is our goal.
2:54:07Your goal is the anchor for right or wrong, wrong, not morally, not ethically, not objectively knowledge based, but when it comes to your identity, what you believe to be true about yourself, and when it comes to your judgments, is what you believe to be true about the things that you know exist, whether those beliefs that you hold are right or wrong depend on your goal and how aligned they are with the achievement of your goal.
2:54:30This is a beautiful simple idea. Let me explain. If you believe something to be true, but it stops you from acting out behavior that helps you achieve what you want to achieve, then that belief is wrong.
2:54:43And I don't mean wrong in a traditional sense. I mean it when it's measured against your goal reality and what you'd need to believe to make that happen. Your life and reality is a product of your belief systems according to the ladder on the right.
2:54:56Remember this here, life and reality, actions, decisions, perceived options, thought, paradigm, beliefs, and experiences, which means that everything comes from your beliefs which come from experiences. So if you want to change your reality, you must change your beliefs.
2:55:08And I want you to imagine here, imagine an alternative universe can't get my words out.
2:55:13Imagine an alt I get a bit excited when I talk about this stuff, so I talk too quickly, so I apologize. Imagine an alternative an alternative universe where your goal has manifested.
2:55:24So imagine just for a second here that your dream has come true. Right now you're living your dream life, you've got everything you want, you've got the money, you've got the every you've the status, you've got the financial freedom.
2:55:38What beliefs would have brought about that goal? What would you have to believe to be true to have achieved that goal? You know, what would you have to change about your belief systems?
2:55:46What what knowledge based, judgment based, and self image based belief systems would have to would have change or shift or create for that to happen? Since everything is upstream of these, there is a world where your goal is true if only you had different belief systems. So sometimes what you believe is true and what is actually true are two very different things.
2:56:05So what I what I mean here instead of true is right. So sometimes what you believe is right and what is actually right are two very different things. Your observations will often be wrong leading to your knowledge based beliefs being way off incorrect.
2:56:22And this leads to behavior that is fundamentally wrong. So you act out your beliefs. So if your beliefs are wrong, then your actions will be wrong.
2:56:29And like whether whether a behavior is right or wrong depends on whether or not it helps you achieve your goal.
2:56:36So if you do something that inhibits and prevents you from achieving your goal, then you have done the wrong thing. But if you do something and you behave in a way that helps you achieve your goal and moves you close towards your goal, then you are behaving in the right way, And your behavior is informed by your beliefs.
2:56:53So if a belief gives a sense to the wrong behavior, which is behavior that prevents you from getting your goal, then it's wrong and vice versa. And this will lead to a terrible life and lots of suffering, and the extent to which you are wrong can be represented by these two circles. Obviously, we're talking in the abstract here.
2:57:08Right? So hopefully, I'm doing a good enough job of articulating it, but I am gonna I am gonna give you a diagram. So okay.
2:57:17First of all, let's tackle the knowledge based beliefs. So these are beliefs about stuff, you know, what you believe exists basically. So, you know, when you're mapping objective reality.
2:57:29So for example, let's say that you were about to jump off a cliff. So you know, you're you're you're you're you're at like the the ocean or something, and you know, you're on a cliff.
2:57:40And, um, no. Let's let's say you're actually on a cliff like in a canyon. So there's no there's no water at the bottom.
2:57:46You're not at the ocean. You're you're standing at the edge of a cliff on a canyon and it's really high. And let's say that you look down and you look down into the canyon and let's say it's like really deep, so you can't really see that well, but you look down and at the bottom, it looks like there's a net.
2:58:02You know, like a a big, you know, a big like cotton net would catch you. I don't know if cotton would would would catch you, but and there's there's a safety net at the bottom of the canyon, and you think there's a safety net there. That's the key.
2:58:13You think there's one there. You you look down, and you see the pattern, and you you think, yep. That's that's that's a net.
2:58:19And so, you know, that is your subjective knowledge. So, you know, you've you've made an observation about reality and you think that a net exists. Now, what then happens is you think, okay, well this net exists, so I'm going to jump off this this canyon.
2:58:32And so, you know, you run and you jump off the canyon, and you fall and you fall and you fall and you wait to be caught by the net. But let's say that there was no net, and what you actually saw was in mirage and, you know, the the pattern of the rocks at the bottom of the canyon, and now you die. Because if objective reality is that there's no net and it was just a pattern at the bottom of the canyon, you're you're now dead.
2:58:53And this is kind of how people behave, and this is how you can really make the wrong decision, and this is how being wrong can really impact your life is if you observe something and you think something exists but it doesn't, and you start acting as if it does, well, now you're in a deep deep trouble. Because, you know, let's say for example that, you know, you think that your teacher likes you, you know, and you think that you can get away with something.
2:59:17But let's say that you've misjudged and your teacher does not like you, you know, and and you do that thing, now you can get expelled. Right? So how this works is is we have objective knowledge.
2:59:29Right? So we have objective well, this should really say reality, to be honest, but you have objective reality and you have subjective reality, and this is this is about what exists and what is true.
2:59:39Okay? So the the truth, the objective truth and the subjective truth. And there's a gap between these two points.
2:59:45And to become successful, we must seek something called factual alignment for our knowledge based beliefs. And factual alignment is basically where we want our perception of reality to be completely aligned with The truth.
3:00:01So what what what you need to figure out and what you need to do is to make sure that what you believe is true is actually true because your subjective truth and the objective truth can be two very different things and can be very far apart. And the further apart they are, the the more likely you are to make a mistake, and the more wrong you're gonna be.
3:00:19And so factual alignment is where we seek the objective truth no matter how painful, and we try to align our subjective knowledge with it as close as possible. So how most people live their lives is what happens is, you know, they have their subjective reality and it's pretty separate from objective reality, like there's there's no alignment.
3:00:38And so there's a big gap between what you think is true and what is actually You know? So like, you know, I think there's a net at the bottom of this of this thing, you know, this canyon, but, know, there's no net at the bottom of the canyon.
3:00:49And, you know, what you're looking to do, and this is basically the idea of just becoming smarter and more intelligent, is you want to slightly bridge this this gap, you know, and you wanna just, you know, try and move it closer. So you were just trying to move, you know, the subjective as close as we can to the objective.
3:01:03And then what happens is, you know, they're gonna get closer, and then, you know, they're gonna start to overlap, and then before you know it, like, they're really overlapping, and then before you know it, you have what we call perfect alignment. Now you're never gonna be able to achieve perfect alignment completely all the time constantly.
3:01:18But, you know, like for example, like this is kind of what I've done with this video.
3:01:25So think about what you knew about belief systems before starting this mindset training.
3:01:32Right? It was probably the case that you're all the way over here, and the truth is all the way over here. And so what I've done over the last couple of videos is just moved you closer and closer and closer to to have perfect alignment with this component of reality.
3:01:45And when you're dealing with components of reality, there is like a an objective best way to do things, and you want to find that way. This is the same thing we're gonna do with the sales training.
3:01:54Right? You know, like for example, right now your perception of sales is all the way over here, and you know, my perception of sales is all the way over here. And I'm not saying that I have the very best sales thing, although objectively, I think I probably do because, like, it works, and I've closed, like, $30,000,000 with it.
3:02:11So it's probably better than the thing that you've got. Right? And so the point I'm making is when we go through sales training, all I'm doing is just aligning you with the truth.
3:02:19And this this is how, like, you know, we we we we receive information and, you know, we create experiences, and and what we're trying to do is just create the right experiences that inform the right beliefs and and align us. And down here, this is perfect factual alignment where you're totally right.
3:02:34And this means that what you believe to be true is actually true, and your subjective knowledge is perfectly objective. Reality to you is the state of things as they actually exist.
3:02:44Now I'm talking here about, like, objectivity and, you know, seeing what is actually there, but the same thing applies in a second to, you know, your your your identity and your self image.
3:02:55Because, you know, if your identity right now is one thing, but the identity that you need to have to become successful is another thing, then we need to we need to overlap, and you need to become who you need to become.
3:03:07That makes sense. And so all all all becoming successful is about is just trying to find the best way of doing things, and the best way of believing that things exist, and aligning what you believe to be true with that thing. Right?
3:03:22And you are perfectly aligned from a knowledge based perspective when what you think you've observed is actually true. And true is a is a, you know, we'll put right here because true is a is a very hard, like truth is a very hard thing to gauge.
3:03:36Obviously, if I say to you right now, like, there's a bottle on my desk, then that is true because there's a bottle on my desk. But if I say to you that, you know, if I say to you if I give you a piece of knowledge on, like, sales or appointment booking and it's right because it works, then you need to believe it, and, you know, you you should you'd be more aligned if you did.
3:03:55And the thing is about perfect alignment from a knowledge based perspective is this is actually less common than you might think, and many people many people believe false information and make faulty observations. So, you know, a couple of examples around like fake news and AI generated content.
3:04:12So here are some videos on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
3:04:16Right? YouTube shorts here. This is an Instagram.
3:04:20This is AI generated. And what someone did is they took they took Big Ben, is a landmark in London, and they put a North Face coat on Big Ben. And the video, it looks pretty damn real.
3:04:32Like, you know, obviously to anyone with a brain, this is like fake because, you know, I don't think North Face are gonna put put a North North Face coat on Big Ben. But there were people in the comments like actually being like, woah, when was this?
3:04:47Is this an exhibition? Like people actually believe this was true, which I know to you might maybe maybe you're like, what the hell? That's impossible.
3:04:52But another example is this. This is a viral TikTok where there was there was this this this this this video of someone saying that Disney lowered the the drinking age to 18.
3:05:04And there were there was like there was news articles on this, there was like outcry, and it wasn't until Disney, Disney's I think it was like Disney's CEO or something made like a statement saying like, this is not true, you know. It but for like, for like a short period of time, a lot of people thought this was true.
3:05:20And the funny thing is is that statement that Disney made about it not being true, a lot of people have seen that. So there are people out there that just genuinely think that, you know, the drinking age is 18 in Disney. And, you know, this this is gonna inform people's decisions, their judgments of Disney, whether they go or not, like their expectations.
3:05:36Another example, I couldn't find the the exact one I was looking for, but there was a there was a viral video on on YouTube a while ago of a car being lifted by balloons, and everyone thought it was real.
3:05:47Like it it looked it looked like the spitting image of real, but it was actually AI generated. And, you know, this obviously looks kind of cap, like this is the car would be like tilted and like it doesn't look real at all. But, you know, people will some people will observe this and and they'll they'll become convinced of what they've actually observed, you know.
3:06:06And this is this is incredibly common for you know, not just from like a AI or or fake news perspective, but like, you know, there's there's people out there that think that the earth is flat. You know? And whether the earth is flat or round is a judgment based belief, it's not really knowledge.
3:06:20Right? Because knowledge is the earth exists, and judgment is it's round or flat.
3:06:25Right? Because it is it is a subjective, um, measurement. But but the thing is is, like, from a from a, um, from a physics standpoint and a and a cosmic standpoint, like, there is very firm evidence that the earth is round.
3:06:40Right? So objectively, the earth is round to my knowledge.
3:06:44Right? From my perspective, it's round, but I think it's round because everything that I've seen confirms that. But there are people out there that actually think the earth is flat and, you know, to and that they will behave accordingly.
3:06:56Now there's there's flat earth people who won't get on boats because they're afraid that the the the earth is gonna fall they're gonna fall off into hell. You know? It it is fascinating that like people people, they they make observations and those observations they inform their life and it it's just wild to me like, you know, if you it's like, here's like the earth is flat but the earth is actually round like you're so far apart from the objective nature of the world, you know.
3:07:23It's it's fascinating. So the same idea applies for your judgment and self image based beliefs.
3:07:30So when it comes to your knowledge based beliefs, we can we can seek perfect alignment from like a factual perspective. You know? So, like, you know, for example, like, there were there were people that, you know, and I'm not gonna get political about this, but there there are people that believe that COVID nineteen was a scam and a hoax.
3:07:48And there are people that believe it wasn't even real. Right? And, you know, there's lots of evidence to show that it very much was real, but, you know, some people are out of alignment in that perspective.
3:07:58You know? Some people just truly believe that it didn't happen at all and that it was some five g radiation scam or some conspiracy theory.
3:08:05Right? And, you know, these people, you know, to me to me, from my opinion and perspective, you know, they're not in alignment with the with the true nature of the world, and therefore, you know, liable to make a mistake.
3:08:17But anyway, it also applies to judgment and self image. So it gets it gets a little bit more nuanced here because as it stands right now, here's how it works.
3:08:27You have your current reality. Right? So look around like your current environment, but more importantly your current life.
3:08:33The current, you know, if if you did like a sort of metric check on your life, like your health, your relationships, your your financial situation, where you are, like you have your current reality, but then you have your goal reality.
3:08:47So you have your life right now and then you you have your dream life. But this time instead of being objectively right or wrong where we can actually measure the truth, you know, like for example with the earth being round like it it's true.
3:09:03So if you don't believe that then there's something you're not seeing the right thing. In the same way that, you know, it's not true that there's a North Face jacket on Big Ben. You know, this this is this is physical stuff that we can actually observe and and really like get to grips with.
3:09:18With this stuff, instead of being objectively right or wrong, you're right or wrong based on a subjective measure and that subjective measure is your goal. So this is this is really it's a really powerful idea here because what you can do is you can use your goal and your your your your mission and what you want to inform what you should believe to be true.
3:09:38So when it comes to these beliefs to judgment and self image based beliefs, you are only right or wrong in so far as your belief is out of alignment, and I'm just gonna color these in, is out of alignment with the achievement of a desired goal. Many beliefs you have right now prevent and limit you from achieving your goal reality and therefore they are misaligned with the right beliefs.
3:09:59So simply put, your goal sets the conditions for what you should believe. The reality you want is manifestable provided you have certain belief systems.
3:10:08If you have beliefs that inhibit or prevent the manifestation of your goal reality, then you are essentially misaligned. And these beliefs are wrong, and if you if you have them, then you're gonna fail. If you have beliefs that help you achieve your goal reality, then they are aligned and you are right.
3:10:23So it's also very important to understand that you don't get to choose what you should believe. So what happens is your goal sets the conditions for your beliefs.
3:10:35So if you want something to happen, then you need to change your beliefs so that you can make it happen. So what you want to do is you want to imagine that you nominate your goal like you would a politician to decide what is right.
3:10:47So instead of using your ego to form your beliefs and instead of using your, you know, your ego and your your your your your sense of self, you know, to to form what you believe you should happen, you let your goal decide.
3:11:01And this is how I have orientated my life and it's made me so rich, it's crazy. What you do, instead of instead of thinking that you know what's right and wrong and that you know what you should and shouldn't do, you ask your goal. You go to your goal, which is what you want, and you say, what do I need to believe to make you happen?
3:11:16And then you just go and believe that. And you stop thinking that you know what's right or wrong, and you let your goal decide what's right or wrong. And once again, I'm not I'm not talking about this by the way from a moral perspective, you know.
3:11:27Like, I'm not saying that you like, it's it's, you know like, for example, if if your goal is to be a serial killer, you know, and you start murdering people, then then, you know, then morally that's wrong. But from a from this angle, yeah, technically that's right. Because if you want something and you behave it out, then you're right to do so.
3:11:44But obviously, killing people is terribly morally wrong. Right? Wrong.
3:11:50Right? Anyway. So your goal leads the way and instructs you of what you should do and how you should behave, what laws to follow, what rules to abide by.
3:11:59Like, it's kind of how you vote for a politician. When you when you select a goal, it is like you nominate like a politician and you trust that politician to to guide you and and inform your behavior and structure your life. Right?
3:12:10And so stop thinking that you know what's right and what's wrong and use the wisdom of your goal. Because if you're not sure what you should believe, you know, all you have to do is ask yourself what you want and then then you know what you should believe.
3:12:23Because, you know, if you want to be a millionaire and, you know, you're like, oh, I don't know what I should believe about money. Well, if you wanna be a millionaire and that's everything that you want, then you better start believing that, you know, what a millionaire would believe.
3:12:35And so same thing applies here. Right? So we can visualize this alignment using a similar diagram to before, but this time we're contending with the alignment of our judgment based and self image based beliefs.
3:12:46So what we have over here on the right hand side is our goal reality. And your goal reality is you, you know, in the future being rich and being successful and having a successful business. It could be you with a six pack.
3:12:58It could be you with your dream wife. Right? And what your goal reality does is it forms what I call conditional judgment beliefs.
3:13:07So if I zoom in here, forms conditional judgment beliefs and it forms conditional self image beliefs. And these are the beliefs that you must form in order for you to achieve your goals.
3:13:19So they are conditional, which means that your goal depends on you having them. And so when you select a goal, it will it like a goal comes with conditions.
3:13:27It comes with like a sacrifice. It's like if you want to achieve it, you know, here are the conditions. And the conditions are that you must have certain judgment beliefs, and you must have certain self image beliefs.
3:13:37And then what you have right now is you have your current reality, and you have your current judgment beliefs, and your current self image beliefs. And so whilst your goal informs the conditional, your current reality informs your current beliefs.
3:13:52So this is what you believe to be true right now. This is your and and that's obviously producing this reality right now. But this is what you could believe to be true and if you did believe this stuff to be true, your goal would happen.
3:14:03And so we can align this to the same premise is exactly the same as before. Right?
3:14:09So right now you have a ton of beliefs that if you hold, directly limit and prevent you from achieving your goal reality. And so this is represented by this gap.
3:14:17So here's your current beliefs, here's what you need to believe, and if you believe this you'd have your goal, because you believe this you have your reality. And your job is to challenge these beliefs and correct them and bring them into alignment with the beliefs that directly help you achieve your goal. And so what we want to do with our identity and with our judgments, so with our self image beliefs and our judgment based beliefs, we want to try to change them to align them with what we would need to believe to achieve our goal.
3:14:46And so for example, your goal might be to make a 100 k a year online passively. So this might be what you want, but right now you might have a ton of judgment based beliefs that limit you. So you might like one thing that you might think right now is that, you know, you need a degree to make money, or passive income doesn't exist, or all make money online schemes are a scam, or it takes money to make money, or maybe you have self image limiting beliefs like I'm not smart enough to make money, you know, might be a self image thing.
3:15:14I don't have the motivation to work harder, I'm just too lazy to do it. You know, these are self image beliefs and these are judgment beliefs and if this is your goal, then we can't have these beliefs. Like these beliefs directly limit you and they they they create this separation where what you believe and see is wildly different to what you need to believe and see.
3:15:34And so your your objective and your job, you know, with with this belief thing is right now you're pretty far apart from what what you need to believe. And so what what I'm gonna help you do with this training is bring your belief systems closer to that which you need to believe to become successful and closer, and then we're gonna start to have some overlap where you still got some limiting beliefs, but you're starting to sort of adopt this new identity and this new judgment.
3:15:58Then, And you know, we're getting closer and we're really starting to align, and then we're like completely aligned where what you believe to be true is what you need to believe to be true to achieve your goal. And what that would do is it will completely abolish your current reality, that this star would just disappear.
3:16:15And, you know, once you have perfect alignment, your current reality will align with your goal reality. This takes some time and there's a lot of latency between starting to believe the right things and your reality catching up.
3:16:28So it really takes time for the world to catch up to your new beliefs. But, you know, what we can see here is this perfect alignment. Right?
3:16:35You can see this here where we've we've we've taken our our our identity and our judgments, and we've we've aligned them with what we need. And like once you've got this perfect alignment here as you can sort of see, if I zoom in, you can see we've achieved perfect alignment.
3:16:51But what will happen is like it's a transition. So over time, what happens is once you're aligned and once you start believing the correct thing is your current reality will start to shift, and it will start to shift just closer and closer and closer to your goal reality where, you know, it starts getting closer and closer, then it will start overlapping.
3:17:13And then before you know it, you've got perfect alignment of of your reality, which is where what you have right now is exactly what you wanted.
3:17:20And this is how you get what you want is you start by asking yourself, what do I need to believe to be true in order for me to partake in the behaviors and the actions that would give a sense to my to my goal and reality?
3:17:36You ask yourself that question. You start changing your beliefs. You start rewiring your brain.
3:17:42You start creating new experiences and seeing the world through a different way. You start slowly overlapping these things where you start kind of becoming the person that can make it happen. And then before you know it, you believe these things and, you know, you start to confirm them and, you know, suddenly you are taking sales calls and now you've got clients and now you're making money by yourself and now you've got autonomy and financial freedom and, you know, this this is a slow process.
3:18:04So at the beginning like even though you're kind of like half believing them and you're kind of slightly overlapped like, you know, your your reality just starts to shift ever so slightly and then it shifts a little bit more and then a little bit more and then it starts to overlap.
3:18:17Like this is this this point here is like maybe you start you sign your first client, know, and and then maybe here you you're now making like a couple of thousand a month and now you're here like making 10 k a month And all of that was upstream of you aligning your belief systems. And it's not binary.
3:18:33Right? So, you know, your reality will start to shift around this point.
3:18:39So as soon as you get any level of alignment and overlap between what you need to believe and what you believe, like this is when your reality will start to shift. So, you know, where it starts moving slightly closer and you start booking appointments and maybe you're like, you know, you're starting to become more confident, like that starts to happen around this point.
3:18:55But then once you get like, you know, you you start to sort of eclipse yourself with your belief systems and you're fully aligned, then it's like bang. This is when you're signing clients, you're making money, like you kind of become unrecognizable to loved ones and I mean that in a good way by the way.
3:19:09And and this is basically the job. Is it's is it's like, what do I want?
3:19:14What's my goal? Okay. Like, what do I need to believe to be true to make that happen?
3:19:19And and it really is about this like, whether you're right or wrong or not from my perspective, it depends on whether or not it aligns with your goal. Like it is as simple as that.
3:19:29Like for example, I wanna be a billionaire, right? I wanna build a massive company and change the world and do all sorts of good stuff with business and if I believe, you know, that I'm terrible at hiring people, then I'm screwed because that's a that's a that's the wrong belief to have.
3:19:45And, you know, there there is no sort of right or wrong in so far as that what you need to believe might be completely different to someone else. It's probably very similar because you're in this program to make money, but someone might wanna not have a business, and they might they might just wanna dedicate their life to being like a monk, or they might wanna dedicate their life to being like a philosopher.
3:20:04And, you know, if they wanna be the best philosopher ever, then they're gonna need to align their beliefs with it. So that's subject getting reality and, you know, there there's more to this there's more to this. Trust me, there's we're not finished with this belief stuff yet.
3:20:18But at this point in the training, you know, you really should be starting to understand it's all about your beliefs and it's all about what you believe to be true.
3:20:26And, you know, as we move into the next video, we're gonna really start getting into like changing your beliefs and creating these experiences and, like, how we start making this shift and how we can start, you know, changing our paradigm and this, that, and the other because, you know, if you if you do see your belief as a as a all of your beliefs collected together, if you see them as a map, you know, imagine that you're looking for a pirate's treasure, all you need to do to find the treasure is have the right map.
3:20:54And that's kind of my point here is right now you're following the wrong map because if you follow your map, you get what you get, which is not what you want. So instead, I'm trying to give you a new map like a an updated one that has all of the, you know, the information you need, which is basically the beliefs, and, know, if if I can impart that map with you and give it to you, you can follow it and you will x marks the spot, you will find the treasure, and you will become successful, and then obviously you'll invest in easy grow and I'll be a very happy man.
3:21:18So here's what we've covered. We'll talk more about this in the next video because we're not done. This is like a I told you this mindset thing is not it's not gonna be an easy is it I wish I could just tell you just do the work because that's really all it comes down to is just like, hey man, just go and do the outreach and the sales calls but it's it's not it's not you you need this stuff, you know, it's it's really deeper than just like, hey man, like okay, so all you need to do is just go and send some like build your foundations, send some outreach and do sales calls.
3:21:47That's all you really need to do, right, and get good at what you do. But doing that and and you actually getting up in the morning and doing that every day like in order for for you to do that like consistently, you need to have some big shifts in your mind and the way your brain works and that's that this is how I solidify the change instead of it just being temporary.
3:22:05So we talked about omniscience summary and we kind of summarized achieving omniscience. We discussed like belief conditioning and how like, you know, you are psychologically and genetically sort of loaded at birth to believe certain things and you can be biased.
3:22:19We talked about belief structure. So big one, you know, we we kind of went into this whole idea of the scales and you know, how how beliefs are sort of, you know, scales with a level of intensity and all it really is is basically just stacking rocks where, you know, you you like an experience is a rock and you either stack it as false or true and it's parallel to the opposite and this is how you sort of structure belief systems and and basically how they work.
3:22:43So we discussed that. We also discussed belief feedback loops as well. So we talked about how like, you know, when you believe something then you seek to confirm it, which means you believe it even more, which means you seek to confirm it even more.
3:22:55And, you know, we create experiences and, you know, before we know it, our experiences create our beliefs, then our beliefs create our action, which creates more experiences of the same, and then it goes around and around and around until we get this exponential, you know, solidification of belief.
3:23:09Then we talked about belief memory utility, which is basically like, you know, the evolutionary reason your beliefs form is for efficiency. And, you know, by by having these simple little models of of of the way the world works, you know, we we have this reality cartography thing where we we basically map reality using our beliefs and it's the only real way that we can navigate this thing and that our brain can guarantee immediate present survival.
3:23:34Then we talked about macro and micro paradigms. So we talked about how like you can have like a a dominant component of your paradigm depending on like the volume of beliefs associated with it, and how some components will be more dominant than others in terms of how you see the world. And then last but not least, we talked about this idea of right and wrong and alignment.
3:23:55And to solidify this and just reiterate it like, you know, you have the objective right and wrong which is, you know, when you when there is a true objective nature of reality in the world that you can observe and, you know, you can either observe it in in its most true form as its objective form or, you know, you can be totally wrong.
3:24:14But then on the other flip side, we have a subjective right and wrong which is where you have beliefs and they are only right or wrong depending on your goal and what you want to achieve. And if if they give a cent to the goal and they help you achieve the goal, then they are right. And if they are, you know, if they don't do that and if they if they limit your goal and inhibit your goal, then they are wrong.
3:24:34And, you know, your your job here is trying to get as much alignment between these things as possible so that your current reality can sort of shift and mold, and before you know it, you've got this total alignment where you've become, you know, that person that you need to be and successful. So I'm I'm proud of you because you're doing very well so far, like I'm sure you're taking notes, paying attention, I'm sure you've been, you know, like not getting distracted and and really locking in and you you know, probably starting to feel pretty positive how like how these things are like possible.
3:25:03You know, you're probably starting to get a bit excited here because you're like, hang on a minute. This is actually like doable. Like, yes, it is.
3:25:10Hold on to that, figuring it out. It's possible, man.
3:25:13Like all these things make sense, brother. I promise you. Sister, you're watching this.
3:25:18All these things make sense and you know, I would encourage you to revisit these videos as much as you can because don't forget this stuff.
3:25:29Trust me. It took me eight years to learn it and sometimes it still slips from my memory, but it makes life very simple and it brings order to chaos.
3:25:37So that's everything for subjugating reality, and I look forward to seeing you in the next video. Cheers.
