  1. 17:25 from a narcissists perspective, wouldn't some of them actually be some of the most interesting and entertaining types of people? The ones most driven to impress? I'm no fan of unearned arrogance, but I'd love to hear Scott Galloway talk about his life experiences, or Mo Salah describe how he trained that shift-left-and-shoot move. It's awesome being outshon if you're not insecure and genuinely interested in the other person. The "all the time" is a key factor. Most people in the "me" culture are a brand because most people are struggling to make ends meet and Tony Robbins told them it was the best approach to achieving your potential with the same effort. On the one hand we coach people to be narcissists, and on the other hand we denigrate them for just brushing the border of narcissism even though they're doing it intentionally by the guidance of the same advisors. This is what makes self help so irritating. Instead of saying "maybe this" and just thinking about it, they say "it is this" then later say "don't do this because this is really that". It's not helpful. We should stop giving lists of turths and start conditioning critical thinking when we hear something that immediately sounds true.
