Summary
Self-deception involves convincing ourselves of falsehoods to avoid discomfort and maintain a positive self-image. This may include denying or distorting reality, making excuses, or rationalizing behavior. While it can offer short-term relief, it ultimately prevents us from facing problems, leading to a distorted view of ourselves and the world.
