# The lies we tell ourselves are the most convincing Created On: 06-04-2024 09:04 am Up:: [[Philosophy of Self (MOC)]] Tags:: #note/evergreen🌲 Topics:: Related:: --- It’s easy to spot the lies of others, but what about yourself? Are you truly a just judge of your inner truth? Often times, through examples such as [[Make time]], we are not. Remember that the lies that we tell ourselves are the most convincing. There’s no one there but yourself to pushback or to challenge you: you have to be that person for yourself. Challenge your assumptions. Challenge your perspective. Challenge your values. Challenge your morals. Challenge everything, especially internally. See the grey in everything, even yourself. For we’re complex beings in a complex world. Stop trying to find the black and white in the gradient canvas of this world and your life. In the famous words of [[Socrates]]: [[The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing]].
