The good selfish is to committ to yourself -yourself, is the part of you that seeks improvement -it means dedicating your actions to development of self for a lifetime -this type of person inevitably helps others around them in 3 possible ways either passively or intentionally. Accountability, Growth, and higher awareness The bad selfish is to committ to your emotions. (Your emotions aren't inherently bad, but are conditional and should be used as a tool primarily.) -whats next is to submitt to your emotions -whats worse is to be dedicated to your emotions -and whats even worse than that is to be married to your emotions -and whats even worse than that is to then use your emotions as a tool against others to serve only yourself, while hurting others.

In fact, id even say that is what made them a slave at the core. They weren't dedicated to themselves,because all of their worked was exhausted for others benefit. In dedication, it requires your attentativeness, consistent work ethic, and submission to due process. In that I can now honor that beyo...
