Egoism isn't a positive or negative word. It is a word that describes human behaviour, and anyone who declares it to be positive or negative would be wrong. Egoism is something that makes you happy, or gives you a feeling of gain or happiness.

This isn't the standard definition of egoism, but I like to think about it this way.
