He describes the hermeneutic horizon, the limit of what we are willing to hear, and why self-help that only confirms our views keeps us stuck. His advice for personal development is to use self-help wisely by paying closest attention to the ideas that challenge you. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://keithwilsoncounseling.com/2023/07/13/sorry-but-your-ex-is-probably-not-a-narcissist/ Quotes to ponder: "It's not a matter of whether a person is a narcissist or not, it's how narcissistic are they." "We need self help because there's not enough professional help." "But listen closely to the messages you don't understand or could even object to. That's how you grow."
