🧪 The Science Behind Visual Perception

Psychologists call this “perceptual set” — the idea that your brain prepares to see what it expects or needs to see.

For example:

• A doctor might notice a person holding their chest in a crowd
• A parent might spot a child first
• A hiker might see a trail or animal before anything else

This doesn’t mean others are “wrong” — it means their brain is tuned to different priorities.

💡 What You Can Learn (Without Judgment)

Instead of labeling your perception as a “worst flaw,” ask yourself:

• What was I focused on today?
• Am I feeling stressed, alert, or distracted?
• What matters most to me right now?

These shifts in attention are clues to your inner world — not proof of weakness.
