Formation of Self Stories
The way we rationalize our actions and behaviors is often retrospective and serves to form a vision of ourselves rather than providing true insight into our own minds. It is a common phenomenon where individuals may act in extreme ways without a clear understanding of their motives, relying on post-hoc explanations to make sense of their behavior. This process of creating stories about our behavior is crucial for shaping our self-perception and future actions, but it should be approached with caution as it does not offer deep insight into the inner workings of our minds.
