'Blind spots' are delusions based on conclusions born out of a desire to live with minimal pain and discomfort.
The thought behind the quote
Blind spots are areas in our lives where we fail to see the truth clearly. These are the parts of ourselves that we justify, ignore, or rationalize to avoid discomfort or pain. Proverbs 12:15 speaks to this reality—fools believe they are always right, unwilling to seek counsel or listen to advice. In contrast, a wise person understands their limitations and is open to the perspectives of others. In other words, a wise person understands they have blind spots and listens when they are pointed out by others.
