The mind does not follow the facts. Facts are stubborn things, but our minds are even more stubborn
Doubt is not always resolved in the face of facts for even the most enlightened among us, however credible and convincing those facts might be.
As a result of the well-documented confirmation bias, you tend to undervalue evidence that contradicts your beliefs and overvalue evidence that confirms them.
You filter out inconvenient truths and arguments on the opposing side. As a result, your opinions solidify, and it becomes increasingly harder to disrupt established patterns of thinking.
You believe in alternative facts if they support your pre-existing beliefs.
It will not make any difference if you listen to me or not. You will carry on in exactly the same way as you have been living. You will not change, you will not do a thing because you are caught in a rut, in a groove, in a pattern. And you will go on and death is there. Right?
You know you need to change but you will not. You can not change because you will not change. You are part of the 95% of people who have joined the ‘Average Club’. They are good people, nice people, but they are people who leave the most important things in their lives on the table.
What are the most important things in your life? Family? Spirituality? Money? Hope? Success? Love? Integrity? The chances are 95% that you are not clear about what the most important things are and even if you are, your behavior, your lifestyle, your actions are proving they are not important to you.
