Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 The myth of Narcissus is a reflection of how today’s narcissistic relationships play out. Narcissus was too concerned with himself to notice that someone genuinely wanted to love him, and Echo desperately wanted to be heard, only to be pushed to the side.#2 Being self-absorbed can lead to emotional abuse. When you love yourself so much that you become an obsession, you act as if no one else exists. This type of attitude leads to abuse and other destructive behaviors that are detrimental to the individual and those around them.#3 There are different types of narcissism, and they are all unattractive qualities. However, true narcissism involves a maniacal pursuit of praise, ambition, and gratification.#4 The most significant trait of a narcissist is their grandiosity. This is not the same as boasting or pridefulness, it is an unrealistic inflated sense of self. If a person won’t stop going on about how they were the MVP of their college basketball team at a dinner party, it might show that they are boastful or even a little ill-mannered.
