Humans aren't rational they rationalize. And I don't just mean"some of them" or "other people". I'm talking about everyone. We have a "logic engine" in our brains, but for the most part, it's not the one in the driver's seat instead it operates after the fact, generating rationalizations and excuses for our behavior.

It's tempting to think that "most people" have this problem, but that you or I are different, to think that our actions are all logical. That is a mistake denying the truth is irrational and dangerous. By accepting that people are fundamentally irrational, we can deal with ourselves and others in a more rational and effective manner. We can learn to manage our irrational selves (somewhat). If, however, we insist that all of our actions and feelings are rational, then we will never be able to deal with them honestly, and are more likely to cling to irrational beliefs and limitations. If we are going to be honest, then we must admit the possibility that everything we know and believe is, in fact, incorrect.
