It's easy to deceive yourself about who you are, your abilities, talents, and weaknesses. Self-deception at times can be constructive or destructive. Reality checks are critical.

  • A good example of a kind of grandiose self-deception is a quip, or a quote, from Socrates who, reportedly, had said that 'there is one thing that I know, and that is that I don't know.' This self-contradiction presents a paradox, a perfect opportunity for one to pause to critically ponder the possibilities of how we may have deceived ourselves when deciding on any particular knowledge we're convinced we thoroughly know. Sometimes, we can't pause for such self-doubt. The starting pistol sounds.

  • Haven't seen you the last couple weeks. Glad you're back.
