Simplified meaning
When someone loves themselves too much, they won't see others as competition. For example, imagine a person who thinks they are the best at everything. They won't be worried about anyone else being better because they are already convinced they are the best. This can make them feel very confident, but it might also mean they don’t try to improve or learn from others. In life, it’s good to have self-confidence, but it's also important to stay humble and recognize the value in others. If you balance self-love with respect for others, you can still grow and form better relationships.
