Some assumptions seem true only because they are self-fulfilling prophecies. They are true when you let your belief in them determine your actions. Examples:

- I can't do this.
- There's not enough.

The first is individual, the second, societal.

For these, the only way to test is to suspend belief and act as if they are false. We may need to give it a bit of time, as these beliefs will have momentum that needs to play out before the possibilities expand.

@crashglasshouses Technically, any number of movies I watched as a child would have been watched religiously. As luck would have it, religion directly caused that number to be lower than 5.
