ABOUT
What if the real obstacle isn't your effort, your discipline, or your circumstances, but what you believe is possible?
Behind every endeavor are beliefs that shape outcomes. Most people never question those beliefs, even when they hold them back. Beyond Belief by bestselling author Nir Eyal (Indistractable, Hooked) reveals one counterintuitive truth: these beliefs aren't facts. They're tools. Understand how they work, and you can set them aside when they are unhelpful and replace them with better ones to change what's possible for you.
Backed by the latest neuroscience and psychology research, Eyal shows you how your hidden assumptions filter what you see, what you attempt, and what you achieve, and gives you a clear, practical method to change them. Learn how to:
- See what others miss – Beliefs filter your perception. Shift them, and options that were invisible come into view.
- Stay grounded under pressure – Change how you respond to uncertainty so steadiness becomes your default, not something you force.
- Break costly patterns – Improve your health, relationships, and career by removing interference – not adding more effort.
- Expand what you think you're capable of – Your limits aren't fixed. They're learned. And what's learned can be relearned.
Once you understand how belief really works, you can stop fighting yourself — and start building change that lasts.
STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
