Making a list of your beliefs can be complicated. Recognizing the belief as a “belief” is the necessary first step, but the strongest beliefs (those that examining them would be most useful?) are probably transparent, they feel like “just how the world is”.
Then again, maybe listing all the strong beliefs would actually be useless, because the list would contain tons of things like “I believe that 2+2=4”, and examining those would be mostly a waste of time. We want the beliefs that are strong but possibly wrong. But when you notice that they are “possibly wrong”, you have already made the most difficult step; the question is how to get there.
