Adding empathy and integrity to your character.
It is unlikely that you can change a narcissist's behavior, as their traits are deeply ingrained. It is important to set boundaries and protect yourself from any harm caused by their behavior. Encouraging them to seek therapy or counseling may be a way to address their behavior.
