True that , self love beats any other!! It doesnt mean one has to demean others because of it. I just read that back over and reputation suits much better than legacy, sorry. I meant trying to be associated to things just because it would be a good reflection on the person that can further social gain when people associate the self and that thing together, in contrary to admitting lack of care eg lots of people who "believe" in things for the gratification of peers .Entrepreneurs are amazing and are the driving force in history. Narcissists dont have to truly love themselves or strive for greatness like an entrepreneur, They can just have no focus on anyone else or care. Narcs with low self esteem are the very same insecure people that cant cope with people being objectively better than them and will lash out in a passive aggressive stance.
