The voice in your head isn't you, it's code written by old negative messages. Saying "I am lazy" locks it in place. Saying "I believe I'm lazy" treats it as reprogrammable. The difference between those two sentences is the difference between a life sentence and something you can rewrite.

But you are not the voice inside your own head. Like, you literally aren't the voice. And I love to make the metaphor to computers again and to see that voice as code, as an algorithm. So if you have a lot of negative messages earlier on in life, the algorithm gets trained on noise. But I want you to know that those messages, that is not who you really are. And what is even more important is that it is possible to rewrite those messages. Because the difference between I am lazy versus I have a belief that says I'm lazy is all the difference. Because the first one is a life sentence. And that second line— one that you can see— that is like a line of code.
