    How to use "Preoccupation with self" in context?

    Most people focus on others when they should be focusing on themselves. It's called the preoccupation with self. It's a problem because it takes away from our time and energy that we could be spending on things that are important to us. When we're preoccupied with self, we're not being as productive as we could be. We're not meeting our goals, and we're not enjoying the things that we're doing. Chances are, if we're not enjoying ourselves, then we're not likely to be happy with our life. One way to break the cycle of the preoccupation with self is to start practicing self-care.
