It's like that barking dog that seems powerful that's not powerful at all. So it seems like it is, but it's not connected to self. Instead, real power is connected to oneness, a greater power, connected to others, community, connected spiritually to God. We are meant to be connected to our creator, but the narcissist doesn't feel connected to a God or anything.
That's why the narcissist believes... He or she is God or has to be God because they actually don't feel connected to a greater power as a result of that. Same thing with ego. You know, ego is the result of feeling separate. And because you feel separate, the ego arises to give you a sense of power and the same thing happens. Now, here's what's wild about narcissists.

They also suffer in most cases from depression and all the symptoms of people who have mental health disorders. And so when someone has depression or bipolar, they have issues where they feel disconnected, alone, and isolated, and they get depressed. And most narcissists actually suffer from the same symptoms, which proves my theory.

When you go from oneness to separateness, you go from positive to negative. And as you move from positive to negative, you experience more negative thoughts and more feelings of aloneness and isolation and disconnection. It's amazing. If that person could be vulnerable, could share what they're going through, could be made feel like they're part of something greater, something bigger.

If they can find healing and wholeness, which is what the book's all about, they would be completely different. They would act different and they would respond to the world in a different way. And they would actually get people to want to work with them and they wouldn't be such a jerk to people who are working for them.

Oh, you nailed it. I mean, watching the interviews, it was, I failed and I didn't live up to what I was capable of. I was injured and man, it was so frustrating. It wasn't a team rallying around each other and saying, hey, let's do this together. The Miami clearly had cohesiveness. They had togetherness. They had unity. They had oneness. And that's why they had power.

And I talk about that a lot in the book, like a team that is one and connected will outperform a team with more talent that is not connected, that is not one. That's why all my books over the years, power of a positive team, you win in the locker room first. I look back now, I go, oh, that's why they worked.

That's why teams who read them actually won championships because they became more connected, which then leads to more oneness, which leads to more commitment, which leads to more love, which leads to let's perform at a higher level together. So everything you're saying is so true. And Jimmy's that kind of guy. But it also starts with Pat Riley and it starts with Eric Spolster.
