| Slide 1: Introduction | Welcome to this Spoken Tutorial on Understanding Beliefs. |
| Beliefs
Correct and wrong beliefs |
In this tutorial, we will learn:
What are beliefs? How are they formed? Why do some beliefs work and some don't? |
| Pre-requisite Slide | For the Pre-requisites of this tutorial please visit the website shown on your screen. |
| Notebook
Pause symbol |
Before we start, please keep a notebook ready to note your reflections.
Pause and practice when instructed. |
| Cricket match
Experience of different people |
Let's start with an example.
Think of a cricket match. Do you think everyone watching will have the same experience? No. |
| Two people react differently to the same event.
Happy faces Sad faces Beliefs symbol |
Two people can react differently to the same event.
One may feel happy after an event. Another may feel sad after the same event. The same event can lead to different emotions. You know why? It's because of their beliefs. |
| Different emotions
Emotions good nor bad. Reality is factual Measuring and testing |
Let's recall what we learnt earlier.
We learned that emotions guide our actions. Emotions are neither good nor bad. Reality is based on facts. So it can be measured, tested or checked. |
| Reality
No wrong or right |
Interpretation is how we experience reality.
It is personal. There is no right or wrong to it. |
| Grocery store | Let's begin this tutorial with an example.
Imagine you have to buy a packet of bread from a nearby store. |
| List of assumptions
Bread is a safe and edible food item. The store nearby is open. The store has bread in stock. Having enough money to buy it. The shopkeeper is good |
In order for you to make that decision, you may assume many things.
Let's list them down: Bread is a safe and an edible food item. The store nearby will be open. The bread is available in the store. You have enough money to buy a packet of bread. The shopkeeper won't overcharge or cheat you. |
| Asking for what you want.
Baking bread Walking safely to and from the store. |
You know how to ask for the packet of bread.
It is okay for you to buy bread instead of baking it yourself. You can walk safely to and from the store. |
| Long list
Beliefs list Thinking Interpretation of reality |
What a long list. Right?
These assumptions are simply our beliefs. I may have missed out on a few more beliefs. Until we sit down and think about them, we are not aware of them. But that's how they are meant to be. They help us interpret reality. |
| Contact lenses
Girl removing lens |
Beliefs are like contact lenses.
We notice a person's contact lenses only when they remove them from their eyes. |
| Formation of beliefs
Experience, sign and sound around |
Do you know how our beliefs are formed?
They come from what we experience, see, and hear around us. |
| Experiences
Bread in the shelf Belief being developed |
Think about your own past experiences.
Every time you visit the shop, you find bread on the shelf. That repeated experience builds a belief that bread is always available. |
| Experiences of others
Conversation with a friend Becomes a part of your belief |
Sometimes, our beliefs come from what others experience.
A friend might tell you that the bread at this shop is always fresh. You trust them, and that becomes part of your belief too. |
| Books, movies, and cartoons
Cartoon character buying groceries Buying groceries |
Books, movies, and even cartoons shape our thinking as well.
Maybe your favourite cartoon character loves buying groceries. Watching that, you begin to believe that buying groceries mean being responsible. |
| Role of teachers and family
Formation of beliefs |
Family and teachers also play a big role.
When they say helping parents makes you responsible, you believe it. That is how our beliefs are formed. |
| Beliefs as rules
Right beliefs Right or wrong beliefs Result of beliefs Checking beliefs |
Beliefs are invisible rules you create for yourself to make decisions.
Do you think beliefs are always right? Not really. There can never be right or wrong beliefs. Beliefs can only be effective or not effective based on the results. Sitting down and checking every belief can be time-consuming. So, when should we check our beliefs? |
| No results from beliefs
No bread in shop Belief about bread in shop is wrong |
We check our beliefs when we are not getting the results we want.
For example, every time you go to the shop and there is no bread. It means your belief that the shop always has bread may be inaccurate. |
| Feedback from others
Negative feedback from others Belief about shopkeeper is inaccurate Anger, sadness and fear Cross check beliefs |
When we constantly get feedback we don't want to hear.
For example, often people say, "You're not responsible," or "You're being cheated." It means that your belief that the shopkeeper is trustworthy may be inaccurate. Or when we repeatedly feel negative emotions like anger, sadness, or fear. It's time to check our beliefs. |
| Belief | Do you know what the best thing is about beliefs?
When a belief does not work for us, we can change it. It is afterall, a rule that we have created for ourselves. |
| Changing of beliefs | We will learn how to change our beliefs in the upcoming tutorials. |
| Slide: Summary

Okay, Let's summarise what we learnt in this tutorial:
We learnt: What are beliefs? How are they formed? Are beliefs always true? How do we know that our beliefs are not helping us? |
