Thanks dudeski sound for reading! it a great drive and a reminder to keep focused on your own end game and not allow people to slow you down. slight narcissistic traits without the compulsive me only attitude is desirable . A narc with a fragile ego who worries what people think and tries to attempt illusion to cover up a lack of substance is going nowhere. Lots of wheels spinning and smoke but no growth or self sustainability. The narc with the high self esteem is going places, the confidence that you are better is how it will benefit rather than the sole consummation of thoughts with the self.
Extreme ends of narcissism scales overlap with psychopaths who are extremely pragmatic and have the ability to become top people in ruthless businesses and army. Expert liars and manipulators, these traits would suit Jobs and Trump. I doubt Einstein was solely led by furthering his image but i dont know enough on that. ALL opinion here but spending time creating a legacy isnt bad but a good friend of ours thought me that there isnt a point in getting a legacy for something that i cant back up. The best legacies are built more on passion and a love (artificial or not) for the topic matter and less about the self.
egos aren't a bad thing as they are the only motivation people have to keep going forward so it is very important to love the person one is, but then alter that expression on it and intensity depending on ones situation.
Narcissists view situations as opportunities to come off in a favorable light in order to shag a woman or make loads of cash or get respect. I re-watched filth a few days ago and i adore how Bruce acts and sums up his lack of respect with - Same rules apply.
