What lies do you most often tell yourself?

I think as humans we all lie to ourselves whether we'd like to admit it or not. For example, if I'm pretty sure something is going to fail, I try to remind myself and "lie to myself" that things are great.
Sometimes I think lying to myself gets my self through the day, we all hit road blocks that we reminisce about that we shouldn't.But then we lie to ourselves and say that we're, "Okay" and we won't try to think of it again.
At least that's the kind of lies I find that I tell myself.

I tell myself that everything is alright when it is not! Once, I was driiving in a car that needed some minor repairs, The driving was ok until the headlights went off! I had to pull over with the lights off until the car stopped.

Sometimes I lie to myself that I will finish of some work in the day but finally put it off for another day.

Honestly, I don't lie to myself. I really don't see the point. I'm not going to believe my own lies, and as I tend to be very pragmatic about most things I'm not much of a dreamer.

I tell myself that one piece of candy won't make a difference. A whole bag later, I know I was lying to myself.

I think that I would probably go the other way... but then it still is lying I guess. If something goes wrong... I always think that its my fault!
