Definition: A belief is a thought we hold and deeply trust about something. Beliefs tend to be buried deep within the subconscious with the result that they trigger automatic reactions and behaviors. We seldom question beliefs; we hold them to be truths.
Example: Without being aware of it, Jeremy held the belief that it was cool to complain and criticize. Alienation of his friends caused him to identify, question, and change this belief about what is cool and attractive to others.
