“Trait #5: An inability to take criticism Narcissists don’t like criticism. When receiving any form of critique, they might react defensively (even aggressively), perceiving the retort as a personal attack against their wellbeing. This is due to their inflated self-perception and their need to maintain an idealized vision of themselves. Since they often don’t perceive anything to be their fault, they may genuinely not believe that they are ever deserving of censure.”

“Tip 4: Trust your instincts The human brain is a complex computer, tuned via millions of years of evolution. Your ancestors had to be good at spotting a bad thing when they saw one. If they weren’t good at it, they wouldn’t be around long to tell anyone about their mistake. What we colloquially call a “gut instinct” is actually your mind’s way of processing subtle cues and excreting an emotional response based on its calculations of this data.”
