What is egocentrism? provide an original example.

Egocentrism is an excessive exaltation of one's personality, making the individual feel as the center of attention.  An egocentric person cannot show empathy, that is, cannot put in the place of the other because he is constantly busy with his own ego and his own interests.  An egocentric individual is also selfish because he thinks only of himself or at least thinks of himself first.

Egocentrism is often related to egolatry and narcissism, ie self-worship.  Moreover, egocentrism is the condition or state of mind of the egocentric. It originates in the Greek, being the junction of egôn and kêntron, which means "I in the center".

An example of egocentrism is the character Jhonny Bravo.  

Jhonny Bravo is the main character of the American series that bears his name. Commonly linked to the figure of a narcissistic man in the series, he stands out for his self-confidence and the certainty that the entire universe must bow at his feet, disregarding any problems suffered by another character. Its trademark is a blond tuft and wearing sunglasses (any time of the day).
