Why do we have low resilience? Because we spend less time with friends. We spend more time with our nuclear family. We have less good friends for all kinds of reasons, but, you know, for example, one of them is that we're not allowed to have friends at work anymore. And what I mean by that is that there are topics that you can't talk about at work. It's frowned upon to talk about sexual issues. It's frowned upon to talk about politics. We spend lots of time with those people. It used to be the place where you got new friends. Now it's not anymore, right? There's not that much going out with friends after work to drink. And you don't know much about the people that we work with.Redefining misbelief06:14: Misbelief is not just about believing in something that isn't so; it's also about adopting it to such a degree that it colors everything we look at. And that's the dangerous thing, right? Because the moment you have some belief…[06:37] it becomes a central tenet in the way you interpret the world; it becomes much broader than that because you start being suspicious and so on.Why does replication matter in social science?52:20: I think there are lots of reasons why things don't replicate. I think that intention is a very small subset. And my hope is that we will grow as a science. We need to be more careful, and so on. But we also need to understand that lack of replication sometimes is just asking another question of what was different between those two things rather than saying, "Oh, it must mean that the first one was not correct. And the second one is correct."The high cost of incorrect beliefs23:43: We live in a world in which some wrong beliefs can have very large consequences. So I don't know if people believe in more incorrect things; probably we believe in less incorrect things, but I think that the cost of believing in incorrect things can be much higher.Show Links:Recommended Resources:The IrrationalBronisław MalinowskiShibbolethFriedrich SchillerCui bono?Richard ThalerCass SunsteinDiederik StapelGuest Profile:DanAriely.comThe Center for Advanced HindsightProfile on LinkedInWikipedia ProfileHis Work:Amazon Author WorksMisbelief: What Makes Rational People Believe Irrational ThingsDollars and Sense: How We Misthink Money and How to Spend SmarterThe Honest Truth About Dishonesty: How We Lie to Everyone--Especially OurselvesThe Upside of Irrationality: The Unexpected Benefits of Defying LogicPredictably Irrational, Revised and Expanded Edition: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our DecisionsTED TalksDan's Youtube Page

Or as you'll soon hear, our letting go of beliefs, as we tend to understand them in our culture. Our catalyst again has been Duke University professor of psychology and behavioral economics Dan Arielly and the message from his book, MISBELIEF: WHAT MAKES RATIONAL PEOPLE BELIEVE IRRATIONAL THINGS.  Most of you are aware that my father had a surprise cancer diagnosis recently. Six weeks later he took his last breath here on earth. This has shaken me, in a beneficial way, on various fronts. I find myself questioning my quote, beliefs, regarding spirituality, money, health & wellness, and relationships. You will hear more from me on this in coming episodes. But it goes to further showcase to me how we limit ourselves and cause harm to ourselves and others when we wrap ourselves up in the concepts of beliefs You can watch this full episodes on YouTube - just search for “What Drives You with Kevin Miller” What Drives You is brought to you by Ziglar, your premier source for equipping Life and Leadership coaches.

We continue our discussion on misbelief and strive to get to the heart of how our beliefs primarily exist to serve and protect us. However they are seldom if ever, fact. I want you to hear that. Few if any of your beliefs are fact. They are not right and other's are wrong. And a dramatic amount of your current problems and stresses and relational issues are due to your unhealthy relationship with your so called beliefs. Duke University professor of psychology and behavioral economics Dan Arielly claims they are mostly in truth, “misbeliefs.” His book, MISBELIEF: WHAT MAKES RATIONAL PEOPLE BELIEVE IRRATIONAL THINGS, is our muse for this series. My co host this discussion is my brother, Jared Angaza. Who every once in a while I'll remind you that while our last names are different and we look nothing alike, we have the same parents. Supposedly. But through a lifetime of pursuing wisdom, we've seen the early beliefs of our upbringing…change. Evolve. Get rejected. So we're going to try and get to some root issues of what our beliefs are actually useful for, and when they are not. And ultimately I hope we can showcase the great freedom there is in trading in the word belief, for the term of…faith.

You've heard me talk often as of late about what I've grown to believe are the dangers of our individual and cultural beliefs. We all want to know what is and what is not and be able to count on it. That's human nature. But the more I've learned in my lifetime, the more of my past beliefs I no longer believe. I just assume then, that many of my current beliefs, I may also change as I continue to learn more. So then what value are beliefs? And how much trust do we put in our beliefs? This is a controversial topic, as we want to believe, our beliefs, are truth and fact. But…they are not. If you can't accept that, either run from this episode, or take a deep breath and open yourself to…freedom. Our guide for this series is Dan Arielly. Dan is an Israeli-American professor and author. He serves as a James B. Duke Professor of psychology and behavioral economics at Duke University. Ariely is the co-founder of several companies implementing insights from behavioral science. His latest book, and our muse for this conversation, is MISBELIEF: WHAT MAKES RATIONAL PEOPLE BELIEVE IRRATIONAL THINGS.

Join me in this new episode of Unlock Your Potential featuring Dan Ariely, renowned professor of psychology and behavioral economics, and a founding member of The Center for Advanced Hindsight. We start this episode by diving into the difference between standard economics and behavioral economics, explained right from our expert guest. We also explore the irrational decisions people make every day and their relevance to the world of entrepreneurship. Halfway through, we discuss the essential ingredients for success: taking risks, trying different things, and stopping wasting time on things that don't work. As we approach the end, Dan and I tackle a common myth surrounding entrepreneurship: the belief that a groundbreaking, never-seen-before idea is the key to success. I hope you enjoy this episode and learn a little about why we make irrational decisions and how you can find opportunities there to make an impact in the world. Check Out More of Dan's Content Here

Summary No guest today in what is my first episode of the new year. I promise no New Year's resolutions except one: to read and digest as many books as I can during the year. Given my interest in books, I was curious to know what some of my colleagues, friends, and family members will read in 2024. So, I contacted more than 40 of them, asking them for a brief bio, their book of choice, and why that title might find its way to their nightstand. I thought that maybe I'd hear from a few, but that many might be too busy to respond, given the fast-approaching holiday. Their responses poured in: Jesse Kohler is the President and Chair of The Change Campaign and also serves as Executive Director of the Campaign for Trauma-Informed Policy and Practice. Going to read Preventing and Healing Climate Traumas: A Guide to Building Resilience and Hope in Communities by Bob Doppelt. Because the climate crisis is widely traumatizing. Promoting support across our society to work through it together is one of the most critical callings of our time. Paul McNicholls is a lay historian and author. Going to read Victory to Defeat: The British Army 1918–40 by Richard Dannatt and Robert Lyman. Because what happened to the British Army between the First and Second World Wars explains why they were summarily defeated by the Germans and had to be evacuated from the beaches at Dunkirk in 1940. Frank Zaccari is a best-selling author and CEO of Life Altering Events, LLC. Going to read The Passion Test by Janet and Chris Attwood. Because over my long time on the planet, my passion – or what I thought was my passion – has changed many times. Now, in my semi-retirement, this book will help me focus on finding my next passion where I can make a difference. Neil C. Hughes is a freelance technology journalist, podcast host and engineer, and the producer of "Tech Talks Daily" and "Tech Fusion" by Citrix Ready.  Going to read Freedom to Think: Protecting a Fundamental Human Right in the Digital Age by Susie Alegr. Because this title will deepen my understanding of the intersection between technology, privacy, and human rights in the digital age. Melissa Hughes, Ph.D. is a neuroscience researcher, speaker, and author of Happy Hour with Einstein and Happier Hour with Einstein: Another Round.  Going to read Misbelief by Dan Ariely. Because the human brain is so incredible and so incredibly flawed (and because I read everything that Dan Ariely writes!) And Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things by Adam Grant. Because we all have hidden potential begging to be discovered.   Valerie Gordon is a former Emmy-winning television producer who brings the Art of Storytelling for Impact and Influence to audiences and corporate leaders.  Going to read Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things by Adam Grant. Because I found his previous works to be insightful and helpful in my business as well as in meeting my own goals. I recommend it to anyone interested in the human mind and its impact on realizing our potential. Rich Gassen is a print production manager at UW-Madison and also leads a community of practice for supervisors where we explore topics on leadership and staff development. Going to read Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things by Adam Grant. Because I have always sought to improve myself and those around me to achieve more through better processes, incorporating efficiencies, and harnessing strengths. I feel that this book will bring me to another level in being able to do that. Sarah Elkins is a StrengthFinder coach and story consultant, keynote speaker, podcast host, and the author of Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will. Going to read Black Cake by Charmaine Wilkerson. Because I've become especially sensitive to representation over the past few years, and I talk about wanting to support all people. Reading a book by a person of color and understanding her back story is one way to help me do that. Diane Wyzga is a global podcaster, a story expert who helps clients clarify ideas and amplify messaging, and a hiker – who walks the talk. Going to read The Perfection Trap - Embracing the Power of Good Enough by Thomas Curran. Because as I've become aware of our culture's dangerous obsession with perfection, I want to learn to step away from my own focus on it. Bill Whiteside is a retired software salesman who is now writing a book about Winston Churchill and a little-known event from World War II. Going to read Larry McMurtry: A Life by Tracy Daugherty. Because after spending the past five years researching my book with my nose in books about Britain and France in 1940, it's going to be refreshing to read just for fun once again. McMurtry's personality and career as a bookstore owner and a highly regarded author – “Lonesome Dove," “The Last Picture Show” and “Terms of Endearment” – fascinate me. Mark Reid is a maker of traditional handmade Japanese paper and host of the Zen Sammich podcast. Going to read The Moon and Sixpence by W. Somerset Maugham. Because the main character's internal moral challenges and the battle with societal expectations are compelling for me to read about and contemplate. Mark O'Brien is the founder and principal of O'Brien Communications Group, a B2B brand-management and marketing-communications firm, and host of The Anxious Voyage, a syndicated radio show about life's trials and triumphs. Going to read Lyrical and Critical Essays by Albert Camus. Because as a longtime fan of Camus' existential work, I look forward to stretching my thick Irish noggin to let in a tad more light – as I always try to do. Hope Blecher is an educational consultant and the founder of Hope's Compass, www.HopesCompass.org, a non-profit that helps members of the community and visitors to interact with survivors of the Holocaust and children of survivors through arts, music, poetry, prose, and more.  Going to (re)read The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exuperty. Because I experience something new each time I read it. And Art Matters: Because Your Imagination Can Change the World by Neil Gaiman and Chris Riddell. Because I'm curious about what these authors will say that will help me continue on my own pathway of exploring art. Christine Mason is the Cultivating Resilience podcast co-host, educational psychologist researcher, entrepreneur, and yoga instructor/mindfulness coach. Going to read From Beirut to Jerusalem by Thomas L. Friedman. Because Friedman knows the region exceptionally well, this book will provide me with a greater understanding of the underlying regional and religious tensions and conflicts and also prepare me to lead others in a deeper discussion toward a potential resolution and peace. Tammy Hader is a retired accountant, a lifetime Kansan, a storyteller, a caregiver, and an author. (See above.) Going to read Bowling Alone by Robert Putnam. Because our relationships – our social capital – continue to be degraded in the current environment, so I want to study it, defend against it, and learn how to shift myself and my community into improved connections. Cindy House is the author of Mother Noise, a memoir about her recovery from addiction. She is a regular opener for David Sedaris on his book lecture circuit. She is also my memoir instructor. Going to read Art Monster: Unruly Bodies in Feminist Art by Lauren Elkin. Because the book looks at women artists and their work as a reaction against the patriarchy. In these days of watching the GOP war against women, it seems especially important as a woman in the arts to consider how my work can be a protest against extreme political positions.  Susan Rooks – the Grammar Goddess – is an editor/proofreader who helps nonfiction/business content authors of books/blogs/websites and podcasters and their episode transcriptions look and sound as smart as they are. Going to read Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity by Peter Attia, MD. Because as I age, I'm interested in doing everything I can to stay alive in a healthy manner. Steve Ehrlich is a lifelong educator and has an equally long-standing calling in fly fishing. He combines those two loves in classes on the lessons of fly fishing and its treasured literature for personal and professional growth, renewal and healing, and social change.  Going to read An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us by Ed Yong. Because I've always been intrigued by the interconnectedness of things, especially the things we can't fully understand. Such a mystery is at the heart of this book, which is about how animals are connected to one another in so many ways and in a manner that most of us have difficulty comprehending.  Annette Taylor is a rogue researcher of evolutionary psychology. Going to finish We Are Electric by Sally Adee – but doing so scares me... Because it seems like the author is justifying our “merging” with AI or at least romanticizing our ever increasing entanglements with technology. And since I like to simplify life using a cave-dweller perspective, this idea freaks me out. Leon Ikler is a commercial photographer primarily shooting tabletop and small room scenes in the studio along with a mix of location work. Going to read Democracy Awakening by Heather Cox Richardson. Because in these contentious times with the nation so divided, I like how she frames today's issues against what has taken place in the past. I feel it is essential to know our history so we can try to avoid making the same mistakes again. Rita Grant is a former award-winning video producer. Going to reread The United States of Arugula by David Kamp.  Because it's a great reminder of how our current American culinary landscape was created. I'm ending with Rita because she also sent in another suggestion. Not a book, but a song – "You Can't Take That Away From Me," sung by the incomparable Ella Fitzgerald. As Rita noted, "The lyrics will stand the test of time.  They're a testament to what we hold in our hearts and imagination that can never be taken from us."

Welcome back to part two of this thought-provoking conversation with world renowned social scientist, Dan Ariely. We continue unpacking the complexity of human rationale and mass psychosis you've probably encountered more times than you can count. We head for the deep in this round to really unpack why you need a northstar to move confidently forward toward a life of fulfillment, and you need to distrust yourself, your beliefs, and certainly your emotions simultaneously. By the end of this two part episode,  Avoid irrational traps we are calling the funnel of misbelief, Understand how to escape corrosive-information and seek objective truth Choose a northstar with flexibility that allows you to prioritize fulfillment This episode is about no longer allowing your emotions to be hijacked without your knowledge, and understanding exactly how they've been leveraged against you to form beliefs that need to be questioned.  “I don't want to be 100% sure of anything that is going to color my worldview, or at least I'm going to be very, very cautious before I get there.” -Dan Ariely Dan Ariely, not only challenges the status quo with his groundbreaking research into human irrationality at Duke University, he also confronts the mass psychosis and misinformation epidemic, using his profound understanding of behavioral economics and personal experiences to shed light on our predictably irrational patterns of thought.

All of us can fall into trying to make sense of the unknown, drawn towards an insight, a theory or a story that seems just far-fetched enough to be true. But what makes rational people believe irrational things? As someone who studies behavioural scientists today's guest is akin to chatting with an intellectual hero. It's highly possible you haven't come across Dan Ariely's work, but his research drives much of what we know about irrational behaviour. Dan Ariely is Professor of Psychology & Behavioral Economics at Duke University, his research is dedicated to answering questions about irrational behaviour, and help people live more sensible – if not rational – lives. He is a founding member of the Center for Advanced Hindsight, co-creator of the film documentary '(Dis)Honesty: The Truth About Lies', and a three-time New York Times bestselling author. This conversation focuses on Dan's latest book 'Misbelief', which is a personal deep dive into an experience Dan faced through COVID with untruths being shared about him and his research. Believing he could just convince people they weren't true lead him down the path of identifying what he calls the ‘funnel of misbelief'. This conversation is insightful, fascinating and practical for us all as we navigate the unknown. Take a trip into understanding the funnel of Misbelief with Dan Ariely.

So far we've talked (and written) twice about character misbeliefs. Then we took a baby break because we're like that, but we're back on it now, my friends. Those earlier posts are linked below. First off to recap, the big lie or character misbelief in your story is what motivates them or causes them to act in a certain way. If your character grows in a positive way, during the story, they usually realize by the end that the lie was a big ole lie and not a glorious simple truth and voila—life is better. Your lie has to move the plot forward and it has to relate to your story's theme. According to LitCharts, theme is just “a universal idea, lesson, or message explored throughout a work of literature.” So a character lie is something like “MIGHT MAKES RIGHT” because your character believes this with all their mighty heart. The theme might be love is more powerful than might. Often, the theme disproves the lie, right? Cool. Now, when you're building characters for your novel and building the plot around them, you want to use that theme and that lie to make your story resonate, to make your readers or audience feel for the characters involved and root for them to stop lying to themselves and get some wisdom (in the form of the story's theme). So basically, you find the theme and the opposite (kind of tweaked) is usually the character's misbelief. So, here's how it goes, step by step for those of you who like steps: Figure out the theme. Think of what's the opposite of the truth of that theme (the lie). Think about why your main character believes this hideous lie. Write a little scene about it. Call it backstory. Think deeply about whether it actually needs to be in the story AS SCENE or if it can be sprinkled in. Think about other moments that made your poor honey of character believe this BS. Think about how believing this lie has totally messed up your character's life right now in the story. Figure out if your main does something that they think sparks joy because of this BS lie but they are totally wrong? How does your character go after a goal that deals with the lie or the theme? This is the plot of your book. Cool, right? DOG TIP FOR LIFE Every once in awhile reassess the things you believe about yourself and the world. Are they really true? Why do you even believe them? What's the theme of your life? It sounds like we've had some Mary Jane, but seriously, as Kira Newman at the Greater Good asks, “If your life were a movie, where would the plot be headed right now? “You may not be immortalized in film anytime soon, but your life is still a story. According to psychologists, we all have an internalized narrative that explains how we became the person we are today and where we are headed tomorrow. Like any Hollywood blockbuster, this narrative has settings, scenes, a plot, characters, and themes.” WRITING TIP OF THE POD A lot of books are flat not because they aren't clever or the plot doesn't have cool things. They are flat because the characters are. The characters are often flat because there's no big lie that's part of their motivation. PLACE TO SUBMIT Exploration and Recovery: Mental Illness and The Awakenings Review Year-round “The Awakenings Review is an award-winning literary magazine committed to publishing poetry, short stories, nonfiction, and photography by writers, poets, and artists who write from experience with mental illness: either in themselves, family members, or friends.

You can read it in full over there, but we're going to encapsulate it here: Write nouns that deal with your novel. Hobbits. Friendship. Powerful ring. Hot elves. Pick one to be your center noun. Power. Make a thematic statement with that theme. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

In this episode, renowned social scientist Dan Ariely discusses the irrational pull of misinformation and how to understand "misbelief" — the psychological and social path that guides individuals to doubt established truths, consider alternative facts, and perhaps even welcome outright conspiracy theories. Dan Ariely is the James B. Duke Professor of Psychology and Behavioral Economics at Duke University. He is dedicated to answering questions to help people live more sensible – if not rational – lives. He is a founding member of the Center for Advanced Hindsight, co-creator of the film documentary (Dis)Honesty: The Truth About Lies, and a three-time New York Times bestselling author. His books include Predictably Irrational, The Honest Truth About Dishonesty, Irrationally Yours, Payoff Dollars, and Sense and now his latest - Misbelief.    Talking points we cover include … The origin of Dan's distinctive half-beard. Behavioral insights into self-acceptance.  Covid misinformation and his attacks on social media and in public  Exploration and reasoning behind irrational behavior and beliefs. Identifying false comprehension. How to know why we believe what we believe. On belief creation and alteration. Understanding why people are attracted to heterodoxy and discussing the negative consequences of rejecting and ostracizing people with non-mainstream beliefs. Shibboleth in communication: signaling identity rather than the pursuit of truth. Behavioral science on task motivation ...and much more.  Enjoy!  For show notes and more, visit larryweeks.com

If you are buying candy for Trick or Treaters this year, what kind will it be? Well, if you want to hand out the candy that kids really want, listen as I start this episode with the Top 10 list of the most popular Halloween candies. https://www.cincinnati.com/story/entertainment/2023/10/03/blow-pops-win-title-ohio-favorite-halloween-candy/71041875007/ Believe it or not, there is an oyster that has lived over 500 years. There is another creature that doesn't seem to age at all – ever! What if we could somehow isolate whatever that is to lengthen human longevity? There is research looking into that right now. And Steven Austad is one of the leading researchers. Steven is a Distinguished Professor of Biology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and author of the book Methuselah's Zoo: What Nature Can Teach Us about Living Longer, Healthier Lives (https://amzn.to/3Q5Zj8L). Misbelief is when someone believes something that is just not so – or something for which there is no reason to believe. Some people believe the earth is flat. That is an example of misbelief. While that is a fairly benign example, other kinds of misbelief can have serious consequences as you are about to hear from Dan Ariely.  Dan is a professor of psychology and behavioral economics at Duke University and author of several bestselling books. His latest is Misbelief: What Makes Rational People Believe Irrational Things (https://amzn.to/3ZNNOpB). Dan himself was and is the subject of misbelief. The story will fascinate you.

Welcome to episode #900 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Here it is: Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast - Episode #900.  Where would I be without Dan Ariely? You will have to listen in to find out. Beyond that, Dan is renowned for his insightful research in behavioral economics, which he simplifies for the everyday reader. His journey into understanding human irrationality began in a profoundly personal way: Recovering from severe burns caused by an explosion. The challenges of his treatments, particularly the agonizing daily baths, led him to question the patterns of irrational behaviors. Post recovery, Dan delved deep into the world of decision-making, keen to figure out how the knowledge from behavioral economics could enhance various facets of life— be it finance, health, habits, or personal relationships. As Dan expanded his understanding, he grew passionate about sharing these insights. His goal? To help people harness this knowledge to elevate their everyday lives. Dan's extensive work, including his great books, Predictably Irrational, The Upside of Irrationality, The (Honest) Truth About Dishonesty (and more), along with the film Dishonesty and The Irrational Game, seeks to make behavioral economics more accessible and relatable. Beyond his writings, Dan holds the esteemed title of James B. Duke Professor of Psychology and Behavioral Economics at Duke University. He is also a key figure at the Center for Advanced Hindsight (tongue in cheek, of course). His latest book is called, Misbelief - What Makes Rational People Believe Irrational Things, which is part freaky memoire (based on a very strange online trope created about him) and part exploration into why we (and our loved ones) might fall into a rabbithole of lies, and how to get out of it.

Social scientist Dan Ariely explores the behavior of misbelief that leads people to distrust accepted truths and embrace conspiracy theories.

What makes rational people believe irrational things? For that matter, how do we know we're the ones being rational? Misbelief author Dan Ariely explains! What We Discuss with Dan Ariely: Why some of our family and friends we once considered rational have succumbed to "misbelief" — they doubt widely confirmed facts and wholeheartedly buy into bizarre conspiracy theories that wouldn't pass muster in an elementary school science fair. Why misbelief has a universal appeal to human beings on both sides of the political divide, and how understanding the psychology behind it helps us diminish its impact. How misbelief campaigns are often ignited by people who operate in bad faith for power, fame, and money, but the majority of people who fall for their grift (and spread it) are victims who require empathy, not judgment, to break free. Dan shares the psychological toll of receiving death threats from conspiracy theorists who believe he's part of some sinister global cabal intent on decimating the human population. How cultivating resilience works as a "vaccine" — appropriately enough — to misbelief in ourselves and others. And much more...

We're doing a hybrid writing tip and podcast this week. All the important stuff is written down here. All the fun stuff and Shaun aka The Talent is in the podcast where we talk about this important writing stuff and other things. So, let's get started. The big lie or the character's misbelief in your story is a major key to your character's story arc, which is basically the emotional change and development of who you character is. The lie drives the stupid or wonderful things that they do in the story. It's what motivates them in a way. Sometimes the protagonist or main character or hero of your story doesn't believe THE BIG LIE, but everyone else does. That's super cool, too. The lie can be a small deal—I am going to win the Little Miss New Hampshire Song and Dance Contest though I can't move my hips and I am ancient and the contest is for 8 year olds and under. (I now want to write this story) The lie can be a big deal on a societal and personal level—Might always makes right, so I'll beat everyone up to get my way. On Writers Helping Writers they say that the big thing is this: Your lie has to move the plot forward and it has to relate to your story's theme. They also break it down to inner and outer lies (which are a bit like character-driven lie and plot-driven lie, right?). They write: “Plot-driven stories often focus primarily on an outer-world Lie such as Hunger Games‘ Lie that “oppressive government is necessary” or Jurassic Park‘s Lie that “science should always be advanced.” Character-driven stories usually focus on an inner Lie, such as “men and women can't be friends” in When Harry Met Sally or “money is the measure of worth” in A Christmas Carol. “An inner-world Lie will affect the character's outer world, sometimes even to the point of becoming the outer world's Lie. And vice versa, an outer-world Lie will likely become crucial to the character's inner conflict and self-estimation. “The distinction is important not so much because of how the Lie manifests in the story as it is because of where the Lie originated. Where did this Lie come from? Who (or what) gave this Lie to the character? And what do the answers mean for the character's motivations and ultimate arc within this story?” Carrie is going to be talking more about this in the upcoming weeks, but we want for you to think about those questions for your own life too. Is there something you believe that might not be quite right? Sometimes it might be that you're bad at art or sports or school. Sometimes it might be that you can only be loved if you are perfect. Sometimes it might be that if you just work hard enough you can be Bill Gates rich. Just like for your characters, your lie can be destructive to your own life. On Writers Helping Writers, Angela Ackerman writes, “We are often our own biggest critics, aren't we? Whenever something goes wrong, we feel disappointed, frustrated, upset, or hurt. The fallout might cause others around us to suffer too, causing further anguish and guilt. When this happens, unless the situation was in no way tied to us, we tend to blame ourselves: “When the character's thoughts circle disempowering beliefs (that they are incompetent, naïve, defective, or they lack value) as a reason for their failure, it eats away at their self-worth. This, combined with a need to identify the pain's cause will lead to a specific effect: an internal lie will form. This Lie (also called a False Belief or Misbelief) is a conclusion reached through flawed logic. Caught in a vulnerable state, the character tries to understand or rationalize his painful experience, only to falsely conclude that fault somehow lies within.” DOG TIP FOR LIFE Pogie's big lie is that she's a super toughie. She is not. Do you have this lie? WRITING TIP OF THE POD Think about your character's lie. What is it that they wrongly believe? LINKS WE TALK ABOUT SHOUT OUT!

Lisa Cron is no fan of how the writing world teaches writers to craft stories. She has several beefs with the standard ways novel writing is taught, including starting your project with "plotting." In this episode, Lisa offers a fresh, practical perspective on the key to writing a compelling story. Lisa has written three books on story, including Wired for Story, Story Genius, and Story or Die. She has worked in publishing at W.W. Norton, as an agent at the Angela Rinaldi Literary Agency, as a producer on shows for Showtime and Court TV, and as a story analyst for Warner Brothers and the William Morris Agency.   Great Moments in the Episode (5:06) The two things that the writing world has gotten wrong about writing stories. (7:00) Page one of the novel is the first page of the second half of the novel. (10:05) The biggest lie that the writing world tells you: "Use backstory sparingly and only when the reader needs to know something." (14:25) What are "misbeliefs" and the importance of knowing the origin story of the misbeliefs of your main character. (19:20) The art of writing is to take what is inchoate ... and put it into language. (25:35) Story structure is a byproduct of a story well told. And the story polishes the prose, not the other way around. (30:01) Story is story, whether you're writing nonfiction, a memoir, or fiction. (39:03) The mark of a writer is being able to throw stuff away.   (43:08) Words of the Episode Pluviophile -  someone who loves rain and rainy days - and the fresh smell of rain.

What are they just totally wrong about? #13: What was the formative moment in your protagonist's life? What event shaped the trajectory they're currently on? #14: What are three moments in your protagonist's life that deepened their misbelief -- a misbelief that the events of your novel will help them address? (Misbelief = the thing your MC consistently gets wrong about the world) #15: After the midpoint of your novel when your MC doubles down and commit to a cause or fight, what might happen that send your story in a new direction? Brainstorm five possibilities. Newsletter

D.L. Moody once remarked, “Church attendance is as vital to a disciple as a transfusion of rich, healthy blood is to a sick man.” Pastor Ray shares a message titled, We Are Family  from his series “Myths That Lead to Misbelief.”

J. Vernon McGee once said…  “Don't say that a loving God is going to send you to hell - He's not. The thing that's going to send you to hell is that you're a sinner and you don't want to admit it.”  A common cultural myth is that a loving God would never allow a person to go to hell. But what does the Bible say? Pastor Ray shares a message from his series Myths that Lead to Misbelief titled, “Wheat and Weeds.”

When we figure out who God really is, we're better able to not only be His representatives to the rest of the world, but our own spiritual lives are healthier. Pastor Ray shares a message from his series Myths That Lead to Misbelief--titled, “More Myths About God”

You were deliberately planned, specifically gifted, and lovingly positioned on the Earth by the Master Craftsman.” (Max Lucado) Pastor Ray shares a message titled “One In A Billion Trillion” from his current series, Myths That Lead to Misbelief.

Billy Graham said, “If you are ignorant of God's Word, you will always be ignorant of God's will.” And President Theodore Roosevelt said, “A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education.” Pastor Ray continues his series on Myths That Lead to Misbelief and talks about the importance of the Bible, God's Magnificent Book.

Someone has said, “As we fill our minds with the truth of God's Word, we will be better able to recognize the lies in our own thinking, as well as the lies that the world presses upon us.” Pastor Ray shares a message from his series “Myths that Lead to Misbelief” and discusses the Myth that the “Bible is just one of many religious books, and is mostly irrelevant to the modern world.”

Harry Blamires writes, “The collision between a Christian mind and a solidly earthbound culture ought to be a violent one.” Pastor Ray shares his second message from the series “Myths That Lead to Misbelief”, entitled The Battle for Your Mind.”CHECK OUT OUT OUR WEBSITE:https://www.rbcdothan.org  FIND US ON SOCIAL MEDIA:  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RidgecrestDothan/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ridgecrestbaptist/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/rbcdothan LISTEN TO OUR PODCASTS Shepherd Talk with Ray Jones  Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4CRWqaj8HRTjyZdvZwG9pn?si=6G-IMu6-QGGD_D8NVa51Ug   Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/shepherd-talk/id1517881599   A2 Life Podcast  Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1PyCfagJ5xYNEyqL6tSNM3?si=aBrFgVLSQvuMF0MhLIEHLw   Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a2-life-podcast/id1517513212   Ridgecrest Stories  Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/77moba4VnI1WvO6SefyBm3?si=SdDk_fjTST6U8drEc9Q-tw   Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ridgecrest-stories/id1518138918   Ridgecrest Baptist Church - Sermons  Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Ir5YcahI8G2SiIjrycB8W?si=rG660IGsRhSrgsRjBE33nw   Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ridgecrest-baptist-church-sermons/id1517442154   Heart Truth Devotions Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/339RoxzO65vb8DX1P4E0YU?si=CuGT8_upQ-SzZn0o8mexMA Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/heart-truth-devotions/id1518661566

David Dunning is the social psychologist best known for his study into why people have problems recognizing their own incompetence which is know as the - “Dunning-Kruger effect”. His research focuses on the psychology underlying human misbelief. In his most widely-cited work, he showed that people tend to hold flattering opinions of their competence, character, and prospects that cannot be justified from objective evidence.  Dunning’s other research focuses on decision-making in various settings and how our preferences distort our judgements and conclusions. This fascinating episode explores David’s decision making process, how to protect against psychological biases and advice on developing your learning abilities!

The problem is Misbelief - what do you believe?

Healing Is A Primary Issue Psalm 103:1-5 “Bless the LORD, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Proverbs 18:9 He who does not use his endeavors to heal himself is brother to him who commits suicide.#1. Healing is part of the salvation packageIsaiah 53:5 He was wounded for our transgressions He was bruised for our iniquities The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we were healed. Matthew 8:17 “He took our sickness and bore our diseases.” Isaiah 52:14 But many were amazed when they saw him. His face was so disfigured he seemed hardly human, and from his appearance, one would scarcely know he was a man. #2. Jesus Majored On Healing Acts 10:38 (NKJV) God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healingall who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him. #3.

Pray God’s Word1 John 5:14-15 This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us--whatever we ask--we know that we have what we asked of him. 4. Speak To The SicknessMark 11:23 whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. #5 Stand in Faith2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV) 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. #6 Look To The Lamb#7 Keep Believing1 Corinthians 13:12 we can see and understand only a little about God now, as if we were peering at his reflection in a poor mirror; but someday we are going to see him in his completeness, face-to-face. Now all that I know is hazy and blurred, but then I will see everything clearly, just as clearly as God sees into my heart right now.
