The Spotlight Effect is a cognitive bias that often leads us to overestimate the extent to which our actions or perceived flaws are noticed and remembered by others. It's well demonstrated by this quote "You wouldn't worry so much about what others think of you if you realized how seldom they do." Eleanor Roosevelt
You wouldn't worry so much about what others think of you if you realized how seldom they do. Eleanor Roosevelt
Self-importance is a trap because the moment we start to think that we actually matter is the moment when things start to go wrong.

I am forever grateful that I got some training in the theatre - it reduces performance anxiety. Julia Stiles
If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments. Earl Wilson
