Behind The Story: Author Talk with Nir Eyal

A CCPL Virtual Author Speaker Series Program

Join us and author Nir Eyal to discuss reshaping your beliefs and unlocking your true potential!

What if the only thing standing between you and the seemingly impossible…was belief? This is the question posed by bestselling author Nir Eyal in his new work, Beyond Belief. 

Most of your limits aren’t physical. They’re psychological. In Beyond Belief, Nir Eyal reveals how the hidden assumptions you carry shape what you see, how you feel, and what you do—and how to replace them with beliefs that unlock your true potential.

Grounded in neuroscience, psychology, and unforgettable case studies, Eyal introduces the Three Powers of Belief: Attention, Anticipation, and Agency. Mastering these powers transforms how you see challenges, feel about the future, and act when it matters most.

You’ll learn how to:

• Spot hidden opportunities and solutions others overlook.
• Reclaim your mood, energy, and confidence by reshaping your beliefs.
• Stay calm, decisive, and in control when life feels uncertain.
• Break free from beliefs that sabotage your health, relationships, and career.
• Push further, last longer, and achieve beyond your limits.

If you’ve ever quit too soon, stalled in your career, or sabotaged your own goals, this book gives you the science and the system to go further than you thought possible.

Surgeries without anesthesia. Placebos that heal. Resilience multiplied 240 times longer. Beyond Belief reveals the science behind these breakthroughs and shows why your limits aren’t fixed—they’re learned. And with the right beliefs, you can achieve breakthrough results.
