The Gateway Pack: Your Mental OS Prep Kit
Install these 4 tiny programs before trying any belief changes. Takes 5 minutes. Changes everything.
🚀 Quick Start Installation
Think of this like installing drivers before using new hardware. These aren’t changes to who you are. They’re just tiny adjustments that make change possible.
Installation time: 4 minutes
Commitment required: None
Risk level: Zero (everything’s reversible)
Plugin 1 of 4: Desire Detector
“I can spot where I want things to be different”
Right now, think of one thing that frustrates you regularly that you think you could change.
Got it? Good. That frustration isn’t a character flaw. It’s your brain’s way of saying “Update available here.”
✓ INSTALL: For the next 24 hours, when you feel stuck, just think: “Bug detected. Update available.”

Plugin 2 of 4: Possibility Prover
“Change is actually possible for me”
Quick exercise: Name one thing you believed as a kid that you don’t believe now.
Maybe it was Santa. Maybe it was that adults have everything figured out. Maybe it was that your parents were perfect.
Notice: Your brain updated that belief automatically. No therapy needed. You’re already a natural belief-updater.
✓ INSTALL: “I’ve changed beliefs before without trying. My brain already knows how to update.”
[Installed! Continue to Plugin 3]
Plugin 3 of 4: Safety Switch
“I can always go back”
Imagine beliefs are like clothes, not tattoos.
You can try on a new belief for a day. If it doesn’t fit, your old belief is right there in the closet, ready to wear again.
✓ INSTALL: Before any future change, remind yourself: “I’m just trying this on. I can switch back anytime.”

Plugin 4 of 4: Minimum Viable Change
“I can start ridiculously small”
What’s the tiniest possible improvement you could believe?
Not “I’m amazing at public speaking” but maybe “I could be 1% less nervous next time.”
Tiny changes are perfect. They slip past your defenses. They compound. Atoms build mountains.
✓ INSTALL: “The smallest possible change is exactly the right size to start.”
