| PATHWAYS TO A BETTER LIFE: A SEARCH FOR THE TRUTH An important pathway to a better life is communication free of false and misleading information and our ability to reject that which is untrue. Three topics in this class will help remove barriers to understanding: 1. The false or true assumptions we have about others will affect how we treat them. 2. Preconceived ideas about what is true or false can lead to false beliefs and obscure the truth. 3. Believing false information can cause stress on mind and body. |
