"نحن نكذب بشكل أفضل عندما نكذب على أنفسنا"
— Stephen King
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, the easiest person to deceive is yourself. When you convince yourself of something that isn't true, it's often because you really want to believe it. Think about a student who didn't study for an exam but keeps telling themselves they'll be okay without any preparation. Deep down, they might know it's a bad idea, but it's more comforting to believe the lie. This concept applies to many aspects of life. For instance, someone might stay in an unhealthy relationship because they keep telling themselves it's not that bad. By lying to ourselves, we avoid facing uncomfortable truths. However, recognizing these self-lies can help us make better decisions and improve our lives. It's important to be honest with oneself to grow and truly understand one's actions and motivations.
