Thinking life revolves around you is natural

Think about it, as a baby: everything revolved around you. Logically, if it wouldn’t, you would surely have died. As a baby, you cannot dress yourself, go to the toilet alone, or even eat and drink.

We all needed that kind of attention when we were children. Most of us would grow up to be horrible people if our parents would not have spent countless hours teaching us about right and wrong.

When we are young, we get used to the fact that our parents are always thinking of us. We get used to the fact that as kids, they wash our clothes, cook our dinners, and put us in the shower when we are dirty.

Life stops revolving around you when you grow up

A lot of people do not even stop to think about this. They unconsciously carry on with the same mindset that they had a child.
