Governing beliefs are the core of a belief system, discussing identity and self-worth.

All beliefs exist to interpret the world so as to be able to act within it, with the heart of that being the self-worth that drives any interaction with the world. The deeper a surface belief is explored, the closer to the self-sealing logic of governing believes one gets. Hard to change because change is a threat to self.[^G1]
