The Illusion of Asymmetric Insight

I won't bother with an intro. I'm too thoughtful, overly detailed and too much of perfectionist. I'd have to change my paragraphs over and again.I can understand minds. Read them, I can't tell what they're thinking, but I can trace the moves and twitches, the reactions and similarities.To be honest, so can everyone else. It's just that most tend to focus on their own mind or don't think much of other people anyway. Though, I do believe that life becomes much easier if you can understand how one thinks.

It is commonly thought by the average human, that, we understand others more than they understand us. The person we are talking to is always somehow less mature than we are. Objectively, we all believe that everyone else has a bigger blind point than us, which somehow makes him or her less able or apt to understand what we can. The blind point, or blind self, is the part of us, which can be deemed ignorant. It is one of our four selves, so represented by the Johari window: the public self, the private self, the blind self and the undiscovered self. But this disproportionate way of thinking works both ways for everyone, as it is true that we believe that nobody can understand us and ourselves. Often, when someone tries to persuade us that they know how what we are feeling, we begin to feel somewhat insulted and unhappy that they try to comprehend as much as we. This is how the illusion of asymmetric insight works.
