Among all the things you can do to learn about yourself, is to actually relate and associate with other people. While that represents a portion of life, it's quintessential to do this in order to find out who yourself really is.
Most people have this idea in their heads that one must go to the mountains and isolate, and that this will give them a tremendous amount of insight. It can give you a lot of self knowledge, but isolation can easily lead to deception.
A number one cause to deceptions of this nature, such as thinking you are Hitler and/or Napoleon while you effectively are not this, stems from an isolated perception of self that has not yet presented itself to life and to the world. The more this state is maintained, as one adds meditation in the wrong context, one will soon be Ceasar as well, and the situation is that you aren't Ceasar unless there is a proper display of these abilities and so on.
When the reality will come clashing with this, then you will find out things you likely don't want to hear. At this point this is when you know you are advancing, because the delusional states can be of an excessive nature. Inspirational states must not be mistaken for reality, they are more like an insight into potential if anything else.
Alternatively, you might think that you are falsely a trash or worthless person, because you never allowed yourself to demonstrate a value to other people so that they can recognize it or guide you to do it better. Those of you who are in the real world doing things, you already know what is meant here.
As many people in Spiritual Satanism are doing the most important part of inner self search, we have to also incorporate the second part of this which is relation with other people to see how things go. I am the best programmer or the best hockey player if I never compete; the situation is that this is likely only real in my mind. A very valuable reason to do this is to actually learn.
Falsely the perception that the above is undervaluing one's self of sense worth, also exists. The existence of other people better, higher, taller, weaker, or stronger than you, does not matter as much as self awareness does, and when self awareness arises to a high level, you simply feel at ease and good to be where you are, forming relations with others to attain things that would be otherwise fully unattainable by "yourself".
That's why the Gods are very insistent on teamwork and on the familial bond, because it can be conjoined with the individual nature to elevate everyone in a way impossible in any other way. Not all interaction is needed, but to see certain things which can highlight our own weaknesses, can always be used in a constructive and good way.
Damned would be the world if you looked outside and everyone was only worse or equal to anyone else. Then you would be on the planet of the greys and not anywhere where serious development can take place. These rules of nature are to be respected, because they create the formal bonds for infinite development.
