Academy of Ideas: Why Lying to Yourself is Ruining Your Own Fucking Life! [03.01.2024]
'LIES and ANIMALS' by Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-1881)
”A man who lies to himself, and believes his own Lies, becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others.
When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in order to divert himself, having no love in him, heyields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal.
And it all comes from Lying... To others and to yourself.”
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821-1881)
From an early age most of us are taught the value of honesty and we are swift to cast scorn on the liars who walk among us.
Yet, in a striking paradox, many who claim to be honest in their interactions with others fall prey to the most insidious form of dishonesty: that of lying to one’s self.
In this video we explore the phenomenon of self-deception and examine how it paves the way for broken relationships and a ruined life.
