Beliefs create blindspots—limiting beliefs.

Beliefs are specifically created to optimize by placing constraints on what’s possible. Limiting beliefs over-emphasize the observed to draw conclusions about what cannot be, and this can blind one to what is actually possible. Limiting beliefs tend to be learned helplessness. They can be reframed, if known.[^G1]
