Many people have an incessant need to feel important and also receive disproportionate admiration.

This same need makes the person become selfish towards others, without taking into account other feelings or needs outside of themselves.

Greene suggests that to transform self-love into empathy, we must learn to put ourselves in the place of others, and to choose to change our perspective or vision of the world. In turn, recognize and control our feelings of selfishness, so as not to get carried away by they.

It is important to understand how people present themselves and, in turn, how this affects our relationships with them. Many people use "roles playing" to hide their true feelings or intentions. Often, they have to act differently according to the situation raised, therefore, it is difficult to know their true identity.

Robert Greene suggests learning to read nonverbal signs, giving importance to details. It also invites you to be authentic and not carry out these games, or wear masks.

The force of character is the measure of determination and discipline when facing challenges and achieving objectives.

Because of this, to determine the force of character we must pay attention to the behavior and the respective capacity of a person to control their impulses and face their own challenges.

Robert Greene suggests working in discipline and determination thus promoting our own character force. By understanding this, we can also improve our social relationships.
