Your beliefs can change how you react to things & can change your stress levels & other problems. Beliefs can certainly change perceptions, because cognative/confirmation bias is very real, but it doesn't matter how hard you believe or have been trained to believe that salad will make you healthy, it won't. When I hard problems I believed my doctors & followed their direction & everything got worse. Reality is objective, if you do not adjust your beliefs to align with reality you will suffer.
If the belief that humans can fly motivates you to build a plane, that's great. If the belief that humans can fly motivates you to jump off a cliff, that's not great.
Would also be nice if the guy giving this talk didn't sound like just snorted 5 lines of coke.
