Narcissism, the overestimation of self or self as center of the universe, is different than healthy self-esteem. Narcissism brings distrust and aversion, not success. Spirituality, inclusion in a greater reality, and gratitude are antidotes. Saying "I love you" is an invitation to connection while repeating "I am special" or "I am a princess" foster separation.
As prejudice can be gradually overcome, narcissism can be overcome individually and collectively.
