It is a poor idea to lie to yourself

What else can one add to this statement as is pretty much says it for itself .

The fact is, I don’t think people go through their lives without convincing themselves about something happening in their life but translating it to the way that they want to see, thus making it true in our minds. I know I have done this once or more than once in my life.

The most important thing as people, and this may be the problem, is to be able to differentiate from a lie, and then to believe that lie that you have told yourself.

It’s very difficult to change the way in which you think once you have told yourself something, and believe it. Usually the way in which you are forced to change your mind is when your bubble is burst, and then you have to snap out of the way you were thinking, to go forward to more positive thoughts.

We as people like to dwell on the things that usually won’t help us progress, and should really learn to focus on positivity, and to not lie to ourselves, as it can cause self destruction.
