Self-delusion refers to the act of deceiving oneself, often by distorting or ignoring facts, and believing something that is not true. The following are some characteristics of self-delusion:
Lack of awareness: People who are self-deluded often lack awareness of their own biases, limitations, and the reality of their situation. They may be oblivious to evidence that contradicts their beliefs and fail to acknowledge their mistakes.
Confirmation bias: Self-deluded individuals tend to seek out information and experiences that support their existing beliefs, while disregarding or rejecting information that challenges them. This is known as confirmation bias.
Rationalization: People who are self-deluded often rationalize their beliefs and actions to make them seem more justified or reasonable. They may come up with elaborate explanations for their behavior or beliefs, even if they are illogical or contradictory.
Overconfidence: Self-deluded individuals may be excessively confident in their abilities, knowledge, or judgments, despite having little or no evidence to support their claims. They may believe that they are smarter or more capable than others, even if this is not the case.
Emotional attachment: People who are self-deluded may have a strong emotional attachment to their beliefs, which can make it difficult for them to change their minds or consider alternative perspectives.
They may feel threatened or defensive when their beliefs are challenged, leading them to become even more entrenched in their views. Inability to learn from mistakes:
Self-deluded individuals may have difficulty learning from their mistakes or taking responsibility for their actions. They may blame others or external circumstances for their failures, rather than recognizing their own role in the situation.
Overall, self-delusion can be a harmful and limiting mindset that can prevent individuals from seeing the world as it really is, making good decisions, and reaching their full potential. You really need some serious professional help.
