Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Because of their amazing influence on our lives, we must understand these three challenges:

1. Most of us do not consciously decide what we're going to believe.
2. Often our beliefs are based on a misinterpretation of the past.
3. Once we adopt a belief, we tend to consider it gospel and forget that it's only one perspective.
