"اگر ما همه اینقدر به خودمان علاقهمند نبودیم، زندگی آنقدر بیمزه میشد که هیچکدام از ما نمیتوانستیم آن را تحمل کنیم."
— Arthur Schopenhauer

Simplified Meaning:
People tend to focus a lot on themselves and their own lives. This makes life feel interesting and exciting because we care about what happens to us. Imagine if nobody cared about their own experiences, achievements, or problems; life would seem quite boring, almost like watching a movie without a main character. For example, think about how athletes train hard and compete. They do it because they care deeply about their performance and success. Similarly, we all have our dreams and worries, which keep us motivated and engaged. If we didn't care about these personal details, we might find life dull and not worth living. So, caring about ourselves actually makes life feel more alive and worth experiencing.
