The Individuator Should Never Be Vainglorious

None enjoy a braggart in their midst. None will forbear the conceited among them.

I would not be surprised if an indivduator were imputed by a stuck-up Leftist elitist as being self-absorbed and narcissistic.

Now it is proper for the individuator to be absorbed with the self, but the absorption would be about improving the self, and pushing the self ever to higher, more original, or brilliant performance. There is much of the self-care and self-involvement onthe part of the indiviuator that has a strong element of selflessness about it.

A narcissist usually is not an individualist. The narcissist is selfish, and self-indulgent. The narcissist wants rank, deference, praise and obedience from others around her. She wants to be somebody in the social arrangement at work in a community.

The individuator works hard to be a somebody among the industrious, worthy angels of God.

An individuator is all about service and hard work. Haughtiness gets in the way, hurts feelings and clouds the objective relationship between the would-be individuator and honest self-appraisal. It would be a vain, ineffective trait, soon to be discarded.
