the narcissists peril — believing in the best of what people pretend to see in you (or even believe they see in you) It’s like p-value fishing for an identity. If you find yourself repeating the most flattering things people have ever said about you, beware. Big fall ahead.

I wonder what the real risk is here, aside from grandiosity, which is often a cope/defense for gnawing self-doubt anyways. Most people I know are more limited in their lives by not believing the positive qualities other people see in them.
