  • How to Overcome Limiting Beliefs and why “Positive Thinking” Isn’t Enough: Nir Eyal on his book Beyond Belief
    Jun 10 2026
    What if the only thing holding you back isn't a lack of discipline—but a belief you don't even know you have?In this episode, bestselling author Nir Eyal (Hooked, Indistractable, Beyond Belief) breaks down the science of limiting beliefs and reveals why positive thinking alone won't get you unstuck. If you've ever wanted to show up on video, grow your business on social media, or finally take action on goals you keep putting off—this conversation is for you.Whether you're a business owner afraid to post on LinkedIn, a real estate agent who wants to start making videos, or an entrepreneur stuck in analysis paralysis—this episode gives you a practical, science-backed system to change your beliefs and finally take action.📌 Timestamps:0:00 – Why beliefs are the missing link in motivation3:15 – The motivation triangle explained6:05 – Overcoming fear of judgment and imposter syndrome9:49 – Pain vs. suffering: reframing stage fright11:30 – Beliefs are tools, not truths16:11 – Why fixating on the past keeps you stuck19:25 – The surgery without anesthesia study23:27 – Why positive thinking backfires (and what works instead)31:51 – The hope floats experiment 41:11 – Nocebo effect: when beliefs become biology 47:24 – Step-by-step framework for changing limiting beliefs52:39 – Nir's career journey and advice for aspiring authorsYou will learn: 1. Motivation is a triangle, not a straight line. Knowing what to do and why isn't enough. You also need the belief that you can do it and that it's worth doing. Without belief, even perfect information won't lead to action.2. Limiting beliefs are invisible—to you. You can spot other people's limiting beliefs easily, but your own feel like facts. Uncovering them requires deliberate reflection and a structured process.3. Pain is information. Suffering is interpretation. The same physiological signals (racing heart, sweaty palms) can be interpreted as anxiety or as your body preparing to perform. What you believe about the sensation determines whether it helps or hurts you.4. Beliefs are tools, not truths. Unlike facts (which can't change) or faith (which rarely changes), beliefs can be revised based on whether they're serving you. Choosing a useful belief isn't self-deception—it's strategy.5. Positive thinking alone backfires. Studies show that visualizing success can actually reduce motivation. What works: mental contrasting—imagining obstacles and preparing for how you'll handle them.6. Hope is learned, not helplessness. Research shows we're born helpless and must learn hope. The "hope floats" experiment demonstrated that rats taught to expect rescue swam 240 times longer than those who weren't. The same principle applies to human persistence.7. A 4-question framework for changing beliefs:Is it true?Is it absolutely true?Who am I when I hold this belief?Who would I be without it?Then do a "turnaround"—ask whether the opposite could also be true—and collect a portfolio of perspectives.Quotes from our guest: “Beliefs are tools, not truths.”“Pain is information. Suffering is the interpretation.”“Impostor syndrome isn’t a disease. It’s a belief.”“Your beliefs become your reality.”“High performers interpret fear differently.”“This is what it feels like to get better.”“Changing your beliefs changes your actions.”LINKS:FREE DOWNLOAD: How to Use AI to Make Better Videos + Bonus 10 Ways to Make Magnetic Videos https://www.kimrittberg.com/tips Follow host Kim Rittberg on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/kimrittbergSubscribe to Kim's YouTube Channel http://youtube.com/@kimrittbergcontent to Make Better Videos that Convert GUEST LINKS:Website: https://nirandfar.comLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nireyal/Instagram - https://instagram.com/nireyalBook: Beyond Belief: https://geni.us/beyondbeliefFree belief change guide: https://www.nirandfar.com/beyond-belief-liveBonus content and the 30-Day Belief Transformation Journal is here: nirandfar.com/beyond-beliefPlease spread the word to your friends and leave us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Free Live Workshop with Award-Winning Media Executive & TEDx Speaker Kim Rittberg

    STOP BEING THE BEST-KEPT SECRET: How to Turn Your Expertise into Stages, Clients and Podcast Invitations with the “SEEN Framework”

    Live Virtual Workshop on Wednesday, April 15th at 12 PM EST / 9 AM PST & Wednesday, April 15 8 PM EST / 5 PM PST

    {Virtual Workshop for Founders, Coaches, Consultants & Agents looking to increase their visibility)


    You’re “accomplished but anonymous.” It's time to fix that! You've delivered real results. You are an expert. But if people don’t fully understand what you do, and how amazing you are - you play small and stay invisible. I know this because it happened to me.

    Even after working at Netflix, producing national TV news and being a media executive, when I became a founder - I was “accomplished but anonymous.” I needed to stand out. Once I cracked that code, I became a two-time TEDx speaker, a sought-after keynote speaker, and a trusted expert featured in Forbes, Fast Company and Business Insider with potential clients messaging me several times a week.

    In this workshop, I’ll show you the exact steps I learned in 20 years in TV, at Netflix, at PEOPLE, and that I now apply to thousands of professionals around the country. I'll share the secrets that land them more clients, podcast invitations and speaking gigs.

    YOU WILL LEARN

    • My SEEN Framework for turning your knowledge into authority - to land speaking opportunities and podcast invitations

    • My PATCH Framework for showing up confidently on stage and on camera so event planners are mesmerized by you

    • The 1-step messaging shift that makes people instantly understand your value

    THIS WORKSHOP IS LIVE ONLY….and during this dynamic workshop you will get access to my proprietary “Magnetic Pitch” live at the workshop - with the exact language my clients and I use to land speaking opportunities.
