Ego--The "I Know It All" Attitude
To an egocentric person, the world begins, ends and revolves around him. An egotist can
be funny by default. A boss asked one of his employees how badly he wanted a raise.
The employee said, "Real badly. I have been praying to God for one." The boss replied,
"You are not going to get it because you went over my head."
An egotist talks and looks down on others.
Egotism is the anaesthetic that deadens the pain of stupidity.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SELFISHNESS AND SELF--INTEREST?
It is important to understand the distinction between these two words.
Selfishness is negative and destructive. It destroys relationships because it is based on
negative values. It believes in the win/lose principle. Self-interest is positive. It welcomes
prosperity, peace of mind, good health and happiness. Self-interest believes in win/win.
