Too simplistic? That is the point. To make it simple.
If reality is what you make it - then relying on reality for data is making your reality very much the same over and over.
The concepts in your mind are, in fact, more real than what your senses perceive. Why is this? Because concepts exist directly within the mind and thus experienced 'directly', however, external reality must go through the faculty of the senses which then must be imprinted upon the consciousness which opens up whole realms of odd interpretations - whereas direct conceptual foundations are interpreted only ONE way, which is YOUR way because you conceived of it.
Indifference is a powerful tool and is rarely wielded by the majority of people (that is what makes them the majority!).
