Do you regularly test your beliefs against reality?Checking to see if your ideas of what other think or feel actually line up with how they behave?

Few do, and fewer still will approach reality as a type of living organism to try interpret its signals into behaviors that become predictable, or at the very least manageable.

“When it comes to controlling human beings there is no better instrument than lies. Because, you see, humans live by beliefs. And beliefs can be manipulated. The power to manipulate beliefs is the only thing that counts.”― Michael Ende, The Neverending Story
