When your brain feels its freedom is threatened, it pushes back. Even if the advice is good. Even if the rule makes sense.

For the time being

“For the time being” means temporarily — for now — until something changes.

Examples:

1- She’s focusing on her health for the time being, before making any big career decisions.

2- He’s staying with his parents for the time being, until he finds a new apartment.

I can't unsee it
It means you’ve seen something — and now you can’t forget it. It changed the way you look at that person, situation, or thing.

Examples:

1- He pointed out that the logo looked slightly crooked. Now every time I walk past that building, I can’t unsee it.

2- She realized her friend only called when she needed something. Once she saw the pattern, she couldn’t unsee it.

Unhinged

describes behavior that seems unstable, extreme, chaotic, or emotionally out of control.

Examples:

1- She posted a 20-slide rant over a small comment. It felt unhinged.
2- His reaction was completely unhinged — way bigger than the situation.

It just clicked

When something “clicks,” it suddenly becomes clear. You finally understand it.

Examples:

1- After practicing every day, English pronunciation just clicked.

2- I struggled with driving for months, and then one day it clicked.

Don't twist it

means: don’t misunderstand me, don’t change what I’m saying, don’t interpret it in a negative way.

Examples:

1- A parent told their teenager, “I’m worried about you staying out so late.” And then added gently, “Don’t twist it — I trust you. I just care about your safety.”

2- He said he needed some space for a few days. She looked hurt, so he quickly added, “Don’t twist it — I’m not leaving. I just need time to think.

Anchoring Bias

Psychologists have shown something surprising. When people are exposed to a number — even a completely unrelated one — their estimates shift toward that number.

Your brain uses the first reference point it sees and adjusts from there. But it doesn’t adjust enough. That’s the bias.
