Understanding this quote
The speaker is allowing himself to be fully José rather than putting that identity aside. Focusing on himself means giving his own needs, identity, and attention a legitimate place. The quote presents this as permission because self-focus may feel like something he must consciously allow, not something he automatically accepts.
