About This Quote

When you are self-centered, you see things from a very narrow perspective. You only care about yourself. Everything that happens in the world is not a problem or a challenge to you because you have no expectations of anyone else. Self-centered people live in their own little world where they have complete control over their lives. They believe that everybody else is as selfish as they are, so therefore, they expect everyone else to do as they say and think as they think.
