Self-Deception Unmasked

[eTorro]

Hello.

As I was thinking about writing a column, a stream of self-deceptive thoughts bubbled up:

"You're not capable of writing a great article. You cannot formulate ideas concisely. You cannot express yourself."

Those inadequate thoughts had been followed by a gnawing feeling — it felt like I couldn't formulate a sentence or an idea.

Not only thoughts can be a problem (which are objects of distraction), but your feelings also.

Observation. Introspection. Attention.
