Isn’t ‘looking within yourself’ another way of saying ‘being self centred’?
To be an influential person it is far more important, I think, to look outside yourself and see where you can play a part in improving the grand scheme of things.
Far too many people create a false reality for themselves by ignoring what goes on around them.
Great article, though.

Hey Arthur,
I think it depends on the individual. I am constantly looking at myself internally and asking myself if I can be a better person. I then take what I know is good and what I can provide value back and try to live it out to the folks I care about everyday. An influential person needs to be balanced internally first and exercise restrained in being overboard on the self centered’ness.
