Learned How to Embrace the Unknown and Let Go of My Old Beliefs. #shorts
In this short monologue, Dr. Wayne Pernell explains how humans instinctively protect both their physical and psychological selves. He describes the mind’s tendency to safeguard the internal schema—a personal map of the world—because our identities are closely tied to what we know. This protective instinct leads us to gravitate toward information that aligns with our existing values, often without conscious awareness. Recognizing this bias, Pernell argues that we must act deliberately: by consciously stepping away from familiar assumptions, we create space to be open to new ideas, learning, and experiences.
