Self-Deception is Actually Deadly to Your Spirit

Since reality is subjective, it is easy to fall into the trap of self-deception. It is also deadly to the spirit.

If you accept enough lies, soon you will have difficulty recognizing the truth. Wisdom will remain elusive. You will be stuck.

If you want a different situation in your life, you must change something. If you do not get brutally honest with yourself, you will have trouble understanding what you must change to progress. If you keep doing the same thing you can expect the same results.

Disaster follows those who engage in self-deception because continuing a lie is more comfortable than facing the truth. We often default to what is easy and it soon becomes a habit.

One you start deceiving yourself, it becomes easier and we adapt to this new reality where we define ourselves as having strong moral character while engaging in this type of self delusion.
