Very often, when the mind is strongly fixated or obsessing on something, if you look from the outside – it is important for the mind to latch on to the reflection of the phenomenon, not so much on reality as to arrange the entities inside itself in a certain order.
Apparently here the mind and its closest sub-networks have to choose in any case, and it will obviously choose an ordered and beneficial fixation (e.g., tranquility) rather than the truth. However, advanced strong minds can still train themselves to accept reality as it is, for example, to find benefit in pain and development – stoicism is the good way in this aspect – do not fear death, do not fear mistakes, accept everything as it is…. – I live this way and it is really useful – more useful than the illusory sub-comfort of the internal data re-arrangement.
And nevertheless, in life trivialities, this specific feature of the mind – to shift and distribute information based solely on one’s own subconscious directives – will still manifest itself. It is well known to science how our brain likes to invent explanations even for things we do not understand – the passion for order and any systematization is in its blood.
That is, on even an imaginary fixation of something in the head, just to strengthen some structure in the head and to bring order. Reality remains kind of on the sidelines… Although it continues to play the role of the main motivator, causality.
