Give me some examples...

You mean like

- Self Sabotage

- Limiting beliefs

- Materialistic views on life

- Taking your thoughts seriously

- Not seeing the world for wat it is but layering concepts over concepts on it

that type of stuff?

- discolouring of repetitive patterns.

- default conceptualizing.

- all embracing addiction.

- pain avoidance.

* ideally i wanted list of some what fundamental stuff but free brainstorm on the subject also will do.
