I think I am the most important person in the world, but nobody else thinks

this about me , time does not believe that about me , space does not believe
that about me , the planet does not believe that about me. This is what we
call ego or egocentric.
Ego is not ' a thing ' as ribs, legs or prefrontal cortex.
Biologically, our ego and personality , thoughts and emotions are
actually driven by the energy of our autonomic nervous system , which
is either in a state stressed, egocentric , fearful , called Sympathetic
response , or in a state of safety and recreation called Parasympathetic
response . "
Everybody thinks that being egocentric is something bad.
- youre a bad person John, you are so selfish, give me the toy. Stop
thinking youre the centre of the world, youre only a human being.
-----Oh, really? Lets see.
I have a very big ego, Im egocentric, selfish, what is mine its mine, I dont
help you with the test paper,I dont give you my pencil, etc.
------Why this can be good for me? Lets find a reason.
I have only 30 minutes for finishing the test paper, you are my colegue, but
you didnt learn anything so you cant complete the test correctly and you
ask me to help you. If I help you, I loose my time,my concentration but you
get a good point.
----Why should I loose my chance to complete my test perfectly?
Because you say Im selfish.
Its my interest to be a smart one, to get a good note.
Of course, being egocentric is not the same thing with being narcissistic.
When you are egocentric you are preocupated with your personal interests,
wishes, dreams and your wellbeing, not with the aestethic part.
