Stories that kill

The double-edged sword of our human superpower

"What a world we could have if the stories we told ourselves were securely tethered to objective reality! What peace, prosperity and true progress might we know if we actually vetted the stories we tell ourselves, and discarded the ones that proved to be contrary to nature? History shows us that if we change the story and then act on it we can make massive changes very quickly. You have a superpower. How are you using it?"
