Inside The Mind of Narcissistic Business Leaders

You are in business to make money, not to change the world.

The moment you feel that you are meant to be on Earth for a higher purpose, it’s time to step down from leading a business. Business is a war of attrition. Money favors those who walk around with bloody knuckles, shattered egos, and battle scars. There is no time for self-gratification.

We all have encountered entrepreneurs or business leaders who think their ideas will change the world. These individuals are surrounded by people who constantly feed their egos. They become so big in their own heads that they lose touch with reality. This is often the result of a narcissistic character and a sense of entitlement. The mind of a narcissistic business leader operates in an alternate universe, completely detached from one's skill set.

"Yeah, my company is losing money, I can't sell a thing, and I don't seem to be able to ship a single stable product... but I know in my heart that I can change the world and save humanity!"

Don't be one of those people. You will destroy your business and career if you allow delusional thinking to indulge your sense of self-righteousness. You are not here to change the world; you are here to take care of those who have sacrificed so much to work for your shitty company.

Build great products, earn your keep, serve your customers... change the world on your own time.
