THE TRICK IS NOT BELIEVING IN THAT WHICH IS FALSE

(worth repeating)

We believe true things, but largely we believe partly true things, somewhat true things and false things. Every time we USE one of these not-entirely-true beliefs to make a judgement, we produce, remember, and habituate errors. We create a frame: “pattern of decision making”, worldview, and metaphysics, unconsciously.

One can be quite bright, but never express one’s intellectual potential for no other reason than accumulated error.

We all believe in unicorns.

The trick isn’t so much believing anything in particular, as it is not believing so much that is false.
