    Yet, there is such a resistance to it by certain people, and I don’t understand why.

    People are emotional driven. It might be something like “I worked 80 hour weeks. If I accept that that wasn’t the right move, then I have to admit I fucked up. I’m a good smart person. I don’t fuck up. Thus, this idea is wrong and I reject it”

        It’s how religious and cult members stay in and why it’s so hard to deprogram them.

      It’s more cognitive dissonance than emotional drivers, with what you’ve described.

        Is cognitive dissonance not a subcategory of emotions? If not I guess you’re right

          No, it’s where your reality externally doesn’t match your internal idea of it so you ignore it away or rationalize it away, etc.
