Believe and You Will See! (w/ Nir Eyal )
My guest this week is Nir Eyal, whose two books ('Hooked’ and ‘Indistractable’) have sold over 1 million copies in over 30 languages. This week he published his latest - Beyond Belief: The Science-Backed Way to Stop Limiting Yourself and Achieve Extraordinary Results. In our chat, Nir and I discuss:
Why beliefs can help us perform at our top potential (or vice versa)
The difference between facts, faith, and belief
How beliefs can benefit us, even if they’re not “true”
The importance of cognitive flexibility

Nir also shares a powerful story…
