A brief YouTube monologue by James Laughlin warning viewers to be cautious about what they consume and repeat. Laughlin defines a belief as something you say and repeat often, and cautions that repeated exposure to media (people, shows, written material), social media, AI, and fake news can lead one to adopt those beliefs. He urges viewers to act as a "gatekeeper" for their own minds, deliberately controlling what information they allow in.

Just know that a belief is anything that you say and you repeat over and over and over again. So just be really careful around what you say. Be really careful around what you repeat. Be really careful what you listen to. Depending on who you listen to, if you're listening to that person or that show or you're reading their material, if you listen to it over and over and over again, you start to believe what they're telling you. So be very careful. Particularly in this day and age of social media, of AI, of fake news, the more you read into these things, the more you start to believe it. So, please, I challenge you to begin. Gatekeeper that really guards your mind and really thinks about what's allowed in and what's not allowed in.
