An amazing study published in Psychological Science shows that if you believe that you have free will you have more physical capabilities than if you disbelieve in free will.
Volunteers read either a passage extolling free will or a passage saying that free will was illusory. Those who read the passage advocating free will were able to respond significantly faster on a reaction test. “To lose confidence in free will seemingly introduced a lag between conscious choice and action.”
If that doesn’t make you want to examine and improve your beliefs, I don’t know what will!

If that doesn’t make you examine and improve
