Stop Projecting Your Emotions I Robert Greene

Often times people dislike certain traits about you or others; they are projecting. Pay attention to what they are really saying.

Very true. I have seen people who accuse others of being narcissist are often egotistical, vindictive and cruel themselves.
They attract people like themselves and then play the innocent, helpless victims.

[tequilachanel]

This is why I chose to be alone while working on my growth and healing. No close friends or relationships. If I’m going to attract “bad” ppl I rather not attract anyone at all until I’ve changed. Problem solved 😊

[ryanschneer]

Very true. Stay humble and accountable

Thats what Rumi Said ” the flaws you see in others are yours ”

Great gaslighting short.. wonderful for people who have suffered through narcissistic abuse..👏🏻

Maybe I do have the trait I dislike in others…but at least I am actively trying not to be like that because I genuinely dislike it in me and others. I am more of an echoist, not a narcissist…because I feel the need to be admired and get attention from others, but I repress it because I don’t like it in me. And when I see it in others as a particularly strong need, I don’t appreciate it …but I can understand it. However, when a person is actively trying to put me down and make me feel inferior - that’s when that person loses me. I avoid putting down others.

VERY rare i disagree with Rob but on this...

[ilovehorses]

Not always....sometimes u c bad in pple bc uve seen it b4 in others. Some of us r really good objective observers.

I truly shouldn’t blame me, I used to, however there is a quote saying “ when you question yourself a lot great amount, you are questioning wrong person” I learned not to let blaming myself for everything, truly I habe been so damaged by others, and can’t let this happen again over and over, why not others learn to behave or more humanistic

Enlightening thoughts he has, his thoughts about so many thing show it that he really dig deep into his thoughts

I am brave woman, able to expose the ugly creeps. Willing to confront bullies but they they are cowards.

[lessthanzero]

My mom was a narcissist and neglected me as a child and my entire life.
When I got a dog, there were certainly spurts where I was neglectful of him, and feel down I felt like I am imitating my mother’s behavior. But I didn’t know if I was clearly wrong to be neglectful of him, or if this was the right way to live. I think this is how Narcissism gets passed down. And the awareness, the insight may be a way to break the cycle. I am working on it.

This closes the door to the possibility that an individual truly doesn't have a character flaw, but can see it in others. Is that really impossible?

[BRAINWHISPERER]

There will be those finding this hard to see as legit. Yet when one finds out the brain works with regards to our thoughts and emotions, thry will find this very likely. It is likely being done in a other scenario, so one cant clearly see it. But others do see it when you are doing what you are mad at others for doing. This was hard pill for me to swallow at first....now I just catch it and reporgram that subconscious program. Having a way to quickly change makes it easier to accept as a truth to adjust its not such a threat. Just something to be aware of and change if you know how or can.

The other thing is people what can identify quickly certain negative traits means they have honed that skill in seeing it in others but likely not ones oneself.

[britttullos]

This is not always the case. It could be that you are complaining about an honestly bad trait that you see in someone. “That person is a thief” so you don’t want to get caught slipping around them.

[jdsjmqb]

Sure, but it also sounds like an out, because that way you can never criticize others and the focus just turns back to you. But it is true alot of the time.

[MoonGlow]

And people might exagrate your flaws to be seen 'opposite of that flaw'. So other people wont think that they have the same flaw.
I have seen this lots of time. And when someone do this, Im sure they have the same flaw

[wilvarosa]

This way of thinking can be tricky for someone trapped in an abusive relationship with someone who actually has NPD and might take longee to leave because the person will believe that they are the problem for feeling bad about the abuse

[chavesa]

Essentially true and the broader message of being self-aware, humble, and mindful is important.

But like, Narcissism is also a pretty bad example because NPD is an actual "thing" that impacts people.

[Surveilancepredators]

Come on people. Start exposing the truth. The liars and thieves.
