Its true that being essentially narcissistic means that one is trying to project self as overly intelligent and extraordinary and the trait has been a downfall of many people!

I am glad my score was 8 so not a worrying cause for me!!! :lol: The quiz is really interesting and everyone should take a go at it!!

8 is really good Kalyani ! I have still not gone through the entire quiz ...will have to sit and go through with it now....Narcissistic tendencies in some people is really amazing ...

Oh you should take that quiz, its very interesting and I found it amusing too. I used to take trainings on developing soft skills and I could relate with many of those traits well. We used to have fun labeling our team members with various personality traits and identify their potential, we used similar exercises!

I took it and it was great ! One has t be very very honest while taking it otherwise it doesn't really matter and I got a score of 11 :huh: , I guess not too bad, but there is scope for improvement :) ....Was that when you were working ? On boring days ,sometimes I give such personality tests to my students ,of course simpler ones to suit their age and they love it !!

Oh you were a teacher?? Then 11 is actually appropriate fro you then! :) Yes I was working as a Team Leader in a BPO but quit after my son was born 4 years ago. The time we worked was very odd and continuing would have meant being away from him for more than 13 hours daily which I am against!

Frankly kalyani, I am having second thoughts about the whole thing ! I started out because the headmaster was known to us, but the kind of things that go on because of political interference even in a broken down village school is really too much to take in ! The local leaders use the school hall for all their functions and the school is closed during that time which is 6 -7 days in a month and n pay for us since we are not working...had to get this sorted out with the education dept and so many other hassles! It is just not worth it !

I suffered from this trait in my early twenties but later improved myself. Howsoever excellent you are and whatever be your quality, it is worthwhile to know that the world moved on well before your birth and will continue even when you are gone. we just select a role on world stage and when the role ends, we depart.

So true, every one of has this quality to some extent but we should learn to handle it wisely or overgrow it in a mature way. When someone starts thinking they are indispensable, that is actually the moment they are on their way down!

Narcissum means being engrossed in oneself and one’s own doings and one’s own importance.It can be a dangerous trait when it reaches unhealthy levels..No doubt we all have this trait and within limits it is considered normal, but when it gets out of hand and when people want a lot of self importance it can spell trouble .... :dry:

Just came across this link to a Narcissistic Personality quiz ...could be very helpful and interesting to know about ourselves :) ...

The link did not work for me,. Any how, i know about narcissism. If its more than a healthy level, he will be the embodiment of EGOISM. If its less, a man becomes pessimistic with low self esteem. I wonder if there is a link between 'Dictatorial qualities' and Narcissism.
