Liminal thinkers don’t treat beliefs as fixed truths. They test, observe, and refine them like designers working on a prototype—open to change based on what they learn.

Beliefs Can Be Crafted Like Prototypes

“Change doesn’t start with telling people what to do. It starts with creating space for new thinking.”

You don’t have to convince the world to change. Begin by shifting your own perspectives. When your mindset evolves, it naturally creates space for others to do the same.

Real Change Starts Internally

We form beliefs not from raw truth but through stories we tell ourselves—based on experiences, assumptions, and interpretations. Over time, these stories harden into “truths” we rarely revisit.

Beliefs Are Formed From Stories, Not Facts

Liminal space—the in-between—is where you let go of the old without yet grasping the new. It’s uncertain, often uncomfortable, but this is where deep change and creativity are born.

The Liminal Space is a Portal to Growth

“Being right is less important than being open.”

“Beliefs are models of the world that we build to explain things and make decisions. But models are not reality.”

Once we accept something as true, it recedes into the background. These unquestioned beliefs form the foundation of our worldview, making it difficult to see alternatives—even when they’re right in front of us.

Most Beliefs Operate Invisibly

To shift your life, you must first become aware of the mental models guiding your decisions. Without awareness, you’re trapped in a self-reinforcing loop of thoughts, feelings, and actions.

Awareness is the First Step Toward Change

When you truly listen—with curiosity instead of judgment—you invite others into their own liminal space. This opens the door for transformation without confrontation.

Listening Creates Liminal Space for Others

The more certain you are, the less likely you are to change. Holding tightly to being “right” can actually limit growth, creativity, and connection with others.

Certainty Can Be a Wall, Not a Strength

“The things we take for granted, and don’t question, are often the things that most need questioning.”

Liminal thinking is the practice of becoming aware of and intentionally shifting your beliefs in order to unlock new possibilities. It’s about navigating the space between certainty and uncertainty—where transformation becomes possible.

What is Liminal Thinking?

Our minds filter reality through deeply held beliefs, many of which we rarely question. These beliefs determine what we pay attention to, how we interpret the world, and ultimately how we act within it.

Beliefs Shape Your Experience of Reality

“The liminal space is a place of creativity, of possibility, of not knowing. It’s where true change happens.”

Unlock meaningful change by rethinking the way you see the world. These key lessons from Liminal Thinking by Dave Gray explore how beliefs shape reality—and how you can shift them to create new possibilities.

Why do some people succeed at change while others fail? It's the way they think! Liminal thinking is a way to create change by understanding, shaping, and reframing beliefs. What beliefs are stopping you right now? You have a choice. You can create the world you want to live in, or live in a world created by others. If you are ready to start making changes, read this book.
