Children who know a lot about their family history—where their grandmother went to school, where their great-uncle grew up, how and when their parents met, and so on—are found to be more confident and resilient in general than those who who is unfamiliar with such things. Researchers suggest that helping children develop a powerful “intergenerational self” reminds them that they belong to something larger than themselves. They are not the main characters in the family story, but part of a chapter that is still being written. This is the opposite of the concept of “everyone is around me” and in this sense has a valuable decentering effect.

When compassion or good-heartedness arises in us, forcing us to shift attention from our own narrow interests to someone else’s, it’s as if doors open inside us. Under the influence of compassion, our fears weaken, we become more confident in ourselves, stronger internally.

We are so dependent on the opinions of others that we allow the crowd to be the judge and arbiter of our behavior; we sacrifice anything to be considered “the same as everyone else.” We strive for universal recognition as a reward, we are afraid to be different from others, because this causes a reaction from society: distrust, rejection, suspicion. As a result, we inevitably become part of the homogeneous mass, and this gives us self-confidence and a feeling of acceptance and love, but at the same time we are oppressed by a feeling of loneliness, internal anxiety and lack of personal identity.
