That's the problem with human nature-its egocentric, but how could it be any other way? As Nostatic has alluded, to work against these innate drives takes a herculean effort,not just once or twice, but sustained,because our default setting, if you will, is set on us, as survival necessitates it should be. The only blessing is that we are capable of abstract thinking-We can choose a course of action and apply it-in theory or in actuality being able to 'reject' as course of action. The depressing thing is that we are hard wired towards egocentricity or selfishness, which is always with us.
