It's harder to change your Beliefs; their ingrained from childhood and dictate your learned Behaviors. It feels hard to unlearn!. That's why so many people take the easy route and go back to what they know, instead of improving the behavior to align with the new Beliefs, people tend to go back to their comfort and old mindset that aligned with their ingrained Beliefs.
Like wanting to be healthy but feeling guilty when you eat junk food.
Short and simple. Thank you for your explanation.
Impossible to change beliefs when my frontal cortex has common sense
Omg......I completely agree 💯 with what he just said. Only being that helps me to fix my cognitive dissonance to cognitive consonance in is Jesus!!!
I’m changing my behavior, I’m withdrawing my energy till things fall into right places so I can see the whole picture
Beautifully explained.
Now I see why other beliefs outside of believing in Christ's teachings and message is so difficult to embrace. It makes others feel 'disharmony', so they just reject it.
This is a good breakdown to me. Cognitive consistency (harmony)vs Cognitive disharmony. I'm seeing the spiritual view of this. I understand now. Thank you 😊
Going against the grain.
So most ppl doing bad behaviors change their way of thinking to justify their poor behavior???
so we expained thank you so much
Jesus is The Truth! Can't change that! Yet, he never wants you to do life alone and struggle without help. His truth and his peace will set you free!
Thanks. 😁💯
Interesting to know that the person who was doing this felt emotional pain. It was a case of self sabotage and running away from me yet kept doing it. Seemed like it was fun for them at least.
my ex partner solved this - to remove the dissonance she pointed finger at me - "you made me feel, you made me do"
Is this what is happening to our young people?

I looked up in the dictionary the meaning of cognitive dissonance and saw a picture of Marco Rubio the guy who wants to be President. Please God, help us.
