Once You Realize You Can’t Get Through to a Narcissist

One of the finest qualities you can have is the desire to grow and learn. You know yourself well enough to understand that you can always improve, so that is part of the mindset you bring to your relationships.  But when you are engaging with narcissists, it eventually becomes apparent that they don't share the same eagerness to grow and learn. Instead, they think competitively, meaning they are constantly vying for the upper hand. And what is worse, when you eventually pull away, your adjustments will come with a high price. Dr. Les Carter addresses this matter with compassion, as he reminds you of what you can and cannot change.
