Quotes About Projection

Nu lua nimic personal. Nimic din ceea ce fac alÈ›ii nu este din cauza ta. Ceea ce alÈ›ii spun È™i fac este o proiecÈ›ie a propriei lor realit??i, a propriului lor vis. Când eÈ™ti imun la opiniile È™i acÈ›iunile altora, nu vei fi victima suferinÈ›ei inutile.
~ Don Miguel Ruiz

Since [narcissists] deep down, feel themselves to be faultless, it is inevitable that when they are in conflict with the world they will invariably perceive the conflict as the world's fault. Since they must deny their own badness, they must perceive others as bad. They project their own evil onto the world. They never think of themselves as evil, on the other hand, they consequently see much evil in others.

Projection ranges from the devastating to the trivial, but all acts of projection reduce our anxiety and help us keep our image of ourselves intact.

People will always see you through their own weaknesses and perception - called projection. It's not your fault that they found the perfect mirror in which to cast their reflection upon - you should feel honored that you have been the mirror in which they could see themselves; the light. So, next time - take nothing personal what people say or do to you out of their weaknesses and shortcomings ; it has absolutely nothing to do with you but with themselves.
