In this brief monologue, the speaker introduces the concept of "original selfishness," which he defines as prioritizing one’s authentic self and interests. He argues that by centering oneself, the people who truly deserve one’s care and time will naturally benefit, while those who do not deserve it should be excluded from one’s reality. The speaker warns against wasting precious time on undeserving individuals, even if they attempt to guilt‑trip or label the speaker as narcissistic or selfish. The overall message encourages setting firm boundaries, valuing personal time, and reframing accusations of selfishness as a necessary stance for authentic self‑care.

Chapters

I would call it original selfishness, in which if you are centering your interests and priorities around that authentic self, then all of the people who deserve your care and deserve your time and space will benefit from it. And if they don't, then it means because they don't deserve to be in your reality. You're no longer gonna be interested in wasting the most precious gift of time on people who don't deserve it, no matter how much they're gonna guilt trip you in the beginning that you've become narcissistic and selfish.
