Chapter 06

Belief

Creating a Shift

Before you read

Kevin poses these at the start of the chapter, deliberately before his own argument. Answer them first if you can.

  1. 1

    In what ways do you believe in yourself?

  2. 2

    In what ways do you believe in your communities?

  3. 3

    What do you believe in that is bigger than you?

What the chapter says

Kevin’s own distillation, in his words — not a summary written for him.

  • Belief is one of our most powerful traits, but it can be turned against us.

  • We need to believe in ourselves to pursue our best life and strive to become the best version of ourselves, but we will also occasionally doubt ourselves, because we’re human.

  • We must believe in others, our community, and things bigger than ourselves.

  • We must believe in the possibility of our nation.

  • Hope, faith, and belief are not strategies, but they are powerful tools we can leverage.
