undeluded
Seeing things clearly
Free from delusion or false belief; seeing things as they actually are.
An undeluded person isn't fooled by appearances, flattery, or wishful thinking: She remained undeluded about her chances of winning.
The word often implies hard-won clarity—someone who has resisted comfortable illusions or emerged from them.
