The Importance of Projection

In psychology, there is a term called projection. Often we project onto others the things that we are most afraid to look at about ourselves. People will often seem rather hypocritical when they point out the flaws of others, yet seem completely oblivious to their own similar behaviors. When you wake up in the morning, tell yourself the people I deal with today will be meddling, ungrateful, arrogant, dishonest, jealous and surly.
