Nir Eyal Live: Beyond Belief in Singapore

Paglalarawan

Nir Eyal, bestselling author of Hooked, Indistractable, and Beyond Belief, joins The Generalists live in Singapore to talk about why beliefs shape what we see, feel, and do, why motivation is not just about willpower, and how limiting beliefs can quietly stop people from doing the things they already know they should do. 🤝 Sponsored by https://TAP4SRV.com - Quickly find local Service Providers on WhatsApp! 🤝 In this live episode, Nir explains the core idea behind Beyond Belief: the biggest obstacle is often not information, discipline, intelligence, or resources, but the beliefs that determine whether we persist or quit. The conversation explores the motivation triangle, why people fail to act on advice they already understand, how beliefs shape perception, why entrepreneurs see opportunities others miss, and why positive thinking or manifesting can actually backfire. 🔔 Listen and Subscribe • YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheGeneralistsPodcast • Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2apfGY403NGr1EyTNkJfG4 • Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/sg/podcast/the-generalists 📖 What You’ll Learn • Why Nir believes the real bottleneck is often belief, not information or discipline • How Beyond Belief grew out of people reading Indistractable but not applying it • Why people often fail to do what they already know they should do • How the motivation triangle connects behavior, benefit, and belief • Why persistence matters more than intelligence, resources, or raw willpower • How beliefs shape what we see, what we feel, and what we are able to do • Why the rat persistence study reveals how quickly people can quit too early • Why entrepreneurs often see opportunities that other people miss • How beliefs filter reality through predictive processing • Why lucky people and unlucky people can experience the same world differently • Why manifesting and positive thinking can become harmful when they replace action • How athletes actually use visualization by preparing for obstacles • Why pain is data but suffering
