Your Brain’s Daily Reality Edits

Did you know your brain lies to you every single day? Not in a scary way — just constantly.

Your brain is built to save energy, so instead of processing everything, it guesses.

It fills in gaps, skips details, and smooths things over so life feels easier to handle.

That’s why you walk into a room and forget why you’re there, why you read the

same sentence three times, and why you sometimes feel stupid even though you’re not.

Fun fact: your brain actually sees the world a tiny fraction of a second behind real time and then

edits it so it feels instant. So when something feels off, it’s not you messing

up — it’s just your brain min-maxing reality to survive.
