If you're worried about being a self-centered person, that shows you've already taken an important step towards change. Here is a useful list of simple things you can try that can help you focus (聚焦) less on yourself and more on the needs of others. Even small changes in your daily life can make a big difference!
Focus on listening instead of talking. Give others your full attention and really hear them out. Self-centered people often make conversations go around themselves and they are easy to get bored when the focus isn't on them. If this sounds like you, you can break that habit! Give others a chance to speak and do your best to show that you're really listening.
Put yourself in someone else's shoes. Imagining yourself in their situations helps you understand them better. If your friends are telling you about something that happened to them, you can try to ask yourself how you'd feel and what you'd need if you were them. Then, keep those things in mind when you reply to your friend.
Use fewer "I" and "me" sentences. Don't always want to talk about yourself in every conversation. You can't focus on anyone else if you're always talking about yourself. Try to actively lower the number of "I" and "me" sentences you make in daily conversations. Studies show that talking about yourself less often can make you happier and healthier,so try to remind yourself of that.

Read the passage and answer the questions.
Why should you set goals Setting goals is really important because it helps us shape our lives and guide us towards what we want. Goals are like a map, showing us the way to reach our goals. They turn our lives from something happening to us into something we control.
Successful people know what they want in the life and set goals to make it happen. The goals can tell them where to go and how to get there. With the goals, it's easier to face the challenges in the life because they know where they're going. Imagine two drivers on a trip. The wise driver knows exactly where he is going. . He can drive straight there and make right decisions along the way. The stupid driver doesn't know where they're going. He starts from the same place but drives around aimlessly. Which driver would you like to be
People who win in the life understand the power of setting and working towards goals. They know that success isn’t just lucky, it comes from hard work and clear goals. People who aren't successful often let go of their life.
Setting goals isn’t as hard as it sounds. The key is to find out what’s important to us. Studies show that writing down our goals makes them much nearer to reach. Writing down our goals often helps us remember them and gives us courage to work towards our goals.
61. Why are goals like a map
62. Which driver has no clear goal
63. What do unsuccessful people often do
64. How can you make the goals much nearer to reach in the text
65. If you need to set a goal in study, what will it be
