Don't forget the step of asking for forgiveness and never asking with an excuse in hand and with the sole and full intent of never making the same mistake twice, ever. It puts you out there in the mercy of the person you wronged.
As long as the other apologizes, otherwise it’s pointless and you should apologize and cut off your relationship with them. To ensure that it does not grow.
Exactly. I mean, saying sorry and aknowledging defeat doesn’t mean we are inferior. In contract it means that we are mature enough to recognise that the success of the organisation/goal is far far more important than our name.

Yamato Kurokawa - 黒川山仁 Then you have realized and aware enough to see that you are in need of a master or someone in the medical profession,this is the first step.
Ego is only and simply: the need to be thought of as special by others. It is born out of fear. If you were the last person on the planet you would have no ego. Ask yourself why do you want to be special? It is simply the fear of not being loved.

I would also like the mention the other side of ego. For instance when you fail, your ego can make it all your fault and cause you to believe that you’re more likely to fail in the future. When you succeed, your ego can deflect it and not give you the credit you deserve. It sounds like humility, but it’s really just a small ego. Your ego can be too big or too small, but either way it’s still bad.
Ego is the frenemy that motivates each of us to do more. More than your lazy friends, thinking beyond the herd. However, feeding the ego is where things go wrong. The Ego needs to be managed like a child and be told when to stop talking. I was reminded about my own ego in the beginning of this video, however, i have realized that when things are getting warm in my endeavors, I need to improve on how I react to this as I've spent years at attempting results. The point is I"m aware of my ego based reactions. That's better than not. Just be aware, think back at how you react to things and learn to improve.
Ego is what stops you from admiring the details of the work. The ability to think that your own way is the only way is what will stifle you from progress. Always walk with an open mind despite how much experience you gain and you shall forever be keening your competitive edge.
It is the ego in us that created fear and made human do unwholesome activities. The more we move away from our ego the more bold and genuine we become.
Nice summary. Ego can keep us small, from not doing the thing that really fires up our soul. Fear of failure. Fear of being seen. Fear of becoming so real that the ego is silenced. Our ego doesn't like the soul winning.

But it's not our enemy...learning to see through our egos and retraining our minds will yield far more results than thinking that our ego is the enemy.
Ego isn't the enemy, in fact, it is a part of why you are alive. Your problem is believing that the ego is you (it is not.) Newsflash: The part of you that thinks that the ego is the enemy is also a part of that same ego, as the Ego is the only part of you that can make up 'enemies'. When you meditate, your ego eventually finds it's place as a useful tool rather than an out of control tyrant. The ego does not need to be silenced, it needs to be heard and not obeyed.
Through meditation and listening to my own thoughts I’ve experienced this pattern of thinking I’m either fantasizing about learning or teaching or being challenged And when I don’t have an outlet for that into the world, then the negativity ensues I often thought of hell being the refuse pit of bad ideas
I need to watch this EVERY DAY ... honestly, I'm a victim of this ... just to get to an understanding of this truth it took me almost 40 years ... it's still haunting me ... Thanx for the Great content.
just take the knowledge ppl, stop with this nonsense and pitty fights, the truth is the truth no matter where it comes from, (btw before slandering anyone, look up their history very thoroughly without any self bias, otherwise you're just wronging yourselves)
I've conceptualize ego recently in a way I relate a to a lot now. Life without ego, and life/nature in general IS a frequency, a wave. Moving electrons, light traveling, earth rotating, waves, tides etc. Ups and downs, embrace them (even the downs, let them reach they're lowest till it rises again) smile at the lows, push up the highs. Ego is absence a movement, it's fighting the movement, it want still, cold, mental, static block: death. Why ? I reckon it's a way to feel secure, still, mental blocking and failing is easy to accomplish, it can feel like home, peace. it's a way for the brain to embrace the fear of death and nothingness, when life's movement is too overwhelming and scary because it's above all and infinite and bound to change again and gain. Ego is a little death you accept right now, mentally, then in your life, to feel still. Instead of present life which is beautifully but sometimes hurtfully always moving, changing infinitely. Ego could simply be our finite boundary of intelligence. life if above all that.
The Bible has taught this all along. It’s all rooted in pride. Eve questions if God really didn’t want her to eat of the fruit. Cane burns with jealousy and murders his brother. The Jews murmur and complain that they aren’t provided with more than God has given them. Jesus warns about lust for money, status, and the pride of life. I read this book and feel like it’s a one-eyed observation of the human condition that doesn’t see the full picture. The truest form of destroying the ego (sin) is admitting that you can do nothing but accept the free love and forgiveness of God through Jesus. And living the rest of your days serving others. As Paul says “He must increase, but I must decrease.”
I killed my ego and honestly I now regret it. If you do the same, the thing you'll learn is while you no longer recognize that part of yourself that wants to be vain, wants to take, wants to shine etc. When you finally get yourself there, everyone else will still be doing those things. It's just human nature to put it plainly. And if you think that you can change human nature by being more humble more conscious of others etc and people will respond as such, they don't.
I recently subscribed and am going on a binge and liking every single video I've watched. I need to come back to these videos, especially like this "EGO" one every so often to be reminded of the need to keep balanced while also seeking "mastery".
But also like an animal, if you stop feeding it, it grows hungry, and if you feed it a lot it gets more hungry more often, basically shrink your ego. 👍
Yup, eh ... but sometimes it helps to have an ego. Like, it’s my ego when i go to the gym tell myself that one day I am goona do bench press with 12KG. Sometimes Ego motivates. Just saying . . . .
Remedy: Follow plus, minus, equal 1. Plus- surround yourself with someone greater and better than you 2. Equal- surround yourself with your someone of your level 3. Minus- surround yourself with someone whom you can teach, or write blogs Thank you for your contribution to good 🙏🙏🙏
*Enemy or just our approach is wrong towards everything? What was said about "unchecked" ego is the key. Drukama is teaching these realizations if anyone's interested give it a look. Be well everyone.*
Ego hava a partner call HATRED. When this 2 join forces, even god cant help you. but than, sometimes in life we needs this to protects us from big bully, If we can use this to balance the yin and yang, it is to our advantage, meaning, is only apply to ur enemy, but with great compassion and love to the people that help you during difficult times. 1) Remember those how help you during difficult time. 2)Always remember those who PUT YOU INTO THESE DIFFICULT TIMES.
Once, upon a time, not too long ago, there was no ego. You were yet, but, a child, unaware of yourself and your actions. There was no connections with rewards, attention and recognition. You freely moved to do what ever the thought was that created intent. From this intent, you saw a vision, the end result of the intent. Your mind was silent through the entire task, and no matter how difficult or easy the task was, you had no clue, you simply had no connection with yourself, therefore, there was no connection with reality. So, what if, reality isn't real. Its just an illusion to pull your interest to a set of specific values. This is used for the sole purpose of training someone. When, you look at reality, you should be able to see that it is a creation that took place sometime in the past. Now, what did you also have as a child? An imagination, through curiosity and your imagination, you lived in a state by which reality always fascinated you. What did you do with reality? You altered it, you changed it, you broke it or you improved on it. However, this cool state, by the way allowed your brain to make DMT. Which is where fascination really gets sparked to new levels. Eventually, this period passed and what soon took hold of you would slowly develop your mind to feed on attention -from parents, relatives, friends, school classmates...etc. This would be the beginning to which would lead up to the creation of the "EGO" And all the while, you had no clue that this thing resided in you. So, why didn't you have an "EGO" in the beginning of your life? Well, you didn't have a mind, so, your mind wasn't present to do what? Wander off to other things. Like the cool feed back you go from other people. Now, what is attachment? It wasn't there during the period you didn't have a mind. Lets shorten this up. Tap out of having to need attention and recognition from anyone or anything. Let go of the need to attach to anyone or anything. Your "EGO" is going to fight this process. But, be mindful and push through, eventually, tiny pings of pleasant sensations will sound off in your body. The more you detach from reality, the bigger the pings will become, this will move you to realize something good is going on inside you, mentally and physically, eventually, you will be stepping back to the center of that foundation you were on in the beginning of your life. What is coming will blow your mind away. Imagine, not knowing you exist. Every wakeful second, something is pulling on your interest and your attention is at the center of it. When, a thought pops up or someone ask you to do something, its always a yes. How nice would it be to be able to always look forward to what you're going to do next. This is the life of "JOY" Joy and happiness has always been in you, but, your "EGO" has moved you around so much that you have become a sensation chaser. Lose the I, the me, the self recognition, the self-centeredness and you will find joy, happiness, being content with all of what you experience everyday. Workshops coming soon to a high school near you. I teach a whole new level of being human. While, others teaches you how to create yourself. One question, How easily are you fascinated by all that your senses discovers every second of the day?
Wow thank you so much! I'm so glad I happened upon your channel today, this is such value that I wish I'd come across it a long time ago when I started my self-development journey more proactively. Yet today is as good a time as any to follow you and draw from your vast archive. Please keep doing what you are doing!! God bless you! :)
Let's not make the mistake of confusing ego with pride, your ego keeps your head on the swivel and that makes you highly functional individual in society, whereas pride, just like any other sin can make your life a living hell
There is no Separation between you and your ego!!! When you deeply realize that the ego is just an abstract that you put together from childhood from the enteral world, the ego loses it's control streak! Then you are free being, finally tasting the Unconditional Love that has always been surrounding you. Then you never look for someone to love you. All there is, is Unconditional Love and Freedom.
Ego is not bad; not totally bad. It is necessary that you recognize and accept it. Do not try to beat the river into submission. Rather surrender to its current and use its power as your own.
Ego is the enemy of true happiness and it is expensive. Ego makes us buy all the luxury. If we could defeat ego we will not need to work hard to impress strangers.
That’s what I’m working on right now. To be less vain and less materialistic. It’s not impossible, it’s just uncomfortable to let go of certain attachment to physical items, especially items I don’t have. It’s not even that I want to impress people, it’s that some things are so cute and beautiful, but I know that at the end of the day, they won’t bring me long term happiness.
The Ego is not the enemy. It's the relationship between the mind ego and consciousness which needs to be balanced. The ego is essential, without it the are no storylines to life
@@mindremapping-CPS if you read the book itself then only then you'll realise what exactly ego is and I recommed you to atleast give it a try. Also author explains this very clearly in the prologue that the ego he is talking about is not the one from Freud's school of Psychoanalyis, instead it's emphasis is on entitlement and how it has ruined people's lives and relationships and how you can tame that beast!
@@jamiekhokhar8705 I will look at book on your reccomdation, but the title for me, is misleading. Regardless of Freud or any definition of an ego, it still remains whatever that inner beast is, it is manufacturered by the mind
You need ego to be confident without ego and confident you don’t risk and always believe you can’t do it you need to have a balance for a healthy behavior
Ego can also be hardened during times of adversity if you don't process or accept what happened - instead you keep adding narratives which feed the ego. The more you hold on to past wrongs or even remain angry at your own past reactions - then that just strengthens the ego in it's fear/defensive guise.
Ego, everywhere in our society, despite being seen as problem haven't been solved yet because it's embedded in our biology. Survival of the fittest requires ego. I believe it can feel like dying when losing the ego.
I don't understand the difference between self respect and ego ! Sometimes when I think I am standing for my self respect, they call it ego so I m perplexed what is ego and what is self respect !
I would say healthy ego is acknowledging the ego cannot be currently destroyed so to be in flow with it. But ego can help success e.g. drake, kanye.. so it’s confusing.. but i think healthy ego is like a type confidence, but as we all know confidence > ego Perhaps humble confidence?
Yes! I feel like i have that ego enemy to lol. And i hated so much when i feel that, and i just feel like im just an ego demonic, im fighting it and also accepting it as the monent or time im experiencing my ego enemy demonic ego i sense inside of me n you can say. Damn!
it's amazing book and amazing illustration by you, you really described what's always happening with me when i aspire to do many things that i passion, i suddenly found a deep sound come from me says it's not good and not enough it will not make any change and sadly i was listening to him and believe what he says and eventually i found out i did nothing valuable in my life because i always been in the comfort zone so its great video cuz made me ready to fight this sound as much as i can
ego is absolutely NOT your enemy it is Everyone's Greatest Obstacle. It is why you are here on planet earth. it is who you identify as and it changes over your life if you are fluid. Without it you are nothing but consciousness which is beautiful but is not why you are here right now. You are here to be uniquely you. To conquer your ego and make it your best friend.
What i always thought is "I dont give a shit about other people except friends and family, so i dont expect people give a shit about me." Didnt realize it train me to not follow my ego
I don't think my beats are good so let me get that out of the way before you guys go to my page. But I never realized how egotistical I've been until I found this video.. Ego really is my enemy as well as it is for a lot of people. I'm an artist as well and that is where my ego shined through the most. And looking back, it sickens me. Although I may not have been the type to.. gloat about what I do and say I'm the best at everything. I do talk about what I'm doing rather than putting the work out. And I struggle with finishing it, its not that I'm nkg creating. But I can never finish an idea and make it good consistently. So I worried about what people thought about me. I always admit when I'm wrong, I'm not just looking for ways to make me seem like I have no ego. But subconsciously, I feel like I've been battling with my ego for so long. Now that I've realized my problem, I will try to destroy it consciously
This is how you develop your ego into a mechanism that'll work against you... which is ironically it trying to protect you, even if it means keeping you in a human sized safe or turning you into a monster just to perserve image. Stay aware of your ego and learn to catch yourself often... you'll learn that the ego's can become a good partner that can keep you safe. Awareness is the key to navigating this and life in general; your body develops into what you manifest. A weak but a giant ego is mistaken as the enemy, rather than understand that you developed it that way. Broaden your horizon and you'll see that the human body is the stuff of biblical miracles
Watch out to not going too far with your Ego like I did. As it was my enemy ,at each time I was seeing it inside me I was intolerant and began to hate that entity. Big mistake. Some friend of mine told me as the Ego is a part of myself I have to love it too. It doesn’t mean I have to let it all the space but to recognize his value and be aware of his negative influence. Thanks
I found understanding that these days people are too concerned with them. Understand that it's not all about you . You don't take everything personally you will be more considerate and humble and less stressed. You will have empathy and respect for people and will not be as insecure and snobby.
But how can you kill an idea other than seeing what it really is, by seeing it loses its power. The ego is the idea you have of your self not what you truly are.
Be willing to admit a mistake and say you’re sorry. Do it often and quickly and it’s humbling to do so
Don't forget the step of asking for forgiveness and never asking with an excuse in hand and with the sole and full intent of never making the same mistake twice, ever. It puts you out there in the mercy of the person you wronged.
As long as the other apologizes, otherwise it’s pointless and you should apologize and cut off your relationship with them. To ensure that it does not grow.

When you fear the experience of hurting your ego, it grows; but when you accept pain and move towards it, it shrinks.
Do you mean that when you move towards your pain, then it shrinks?

Well said.
Through meditation and listening to my own thoughts I’ve experienced this pattern of thinking
I’m either fantasizing about learning or teaching or being challenged
And when I don’t have an outlet for that into the world, then the negativity ensues
I often thought of hell being the refuse pit of bad ideas
I need to watch this EVERY DAY ... honestly, I'm a victim of this ... just to get to an understanding of this truth it took me almost 40 years ... it's still haunting me ... Thanx for the Great content.
you are bigger than your ego💪

@@phrofile3613 I resemble that remark.
Ego is only valid for as long as your protecting yourself from unwanted abuse otherwise if ego is used to attack and block good things it's a curse
I've conceptualize ego recently in a way I relate a to a lot now. Life without ego, and life/nature in general IS a frequency, a wave. Moving electrons, light traveling, earth rotating, waves, tides etc. Ups and downs, embrace them (even the downs, let them reach they're lowest till it rises again) smile at the lows, push up the highs. Ego is absence a movement, it's fighting the movement, it want still, cold, mental, static block: death. Why ? I reckon it's a way to feel secure, still, mental blocking and failing is easy to accomplish, it can feel like home, peace. it's a way for the brain to embrace the fear of death and nothingness, when life's movement is too overwhelming and scary because it's above all and infinite and bound to change again and gain. Ego is a little death you accept right now, mentally, then in your life, to feel still. Instead of present life which is beautifully but sometimes hurtfully always moving, changing infinitely. Ego could simply be our finite boundary of intelligence. life if above all that.
Journeyman Music this is very good . Thanks for sharing your view .
The Bible has taught this all along. It’s all rooted in pride.
Eve questions if God really didn’t want her to eat of the fruit. Cane burns with jealousy and murders his brother. The Jews murmur and complain that they aren’t provided with more than God has given them. Jesus warns about lust for money, status, and the pride of life.
I read this book and feel like it’s a one-eyed observation of the human condition that doesn’t see the full picture.
The truest form of destroying the ego (sin) is admitting that you can do nothing but accept the free love and forgiveness of God through Jesus. And living the rest of your days serving others.
As Paul says “He must increase, but I must decrease.”
That's not just the Bible all Abrahmic holy scriptures teach the same thing it's just we people who have forgotten what religion is
not the same at all)))
It’s not just pride. It’s also desire and illusion.
If you actually read Ego is the Enemy, thats one of the chapters.
Just try Ayuahuasca and experience ego death. Pure experience
Thank you for making the world a bit better by sharing that wisdom in easily digestible way.
Glad I can contribute Khalid :) Thank you for the kind comment
Ego screwed me so many times.. I am screwing Mr Ego now !

GAAYYYYYYYY
Did u at least orgasm?
@@iwnunn7999 Hahaha 😂 😂 lol
thank you for this presentation
its amazing when you needed to learn something and you go searching for it, only to find out you already knew it ..
I killed my ego and honestly I now regret it. If you do the same, the thing you'll learn is while you no longer recognize that part of yourself that wants to be vain, wants to take, wants to shine etc. When you finally get yourself there, everyone else will still be doing those things. It's just human nature to put it plainly. And if you think that you can change human nature by being more humble more conscious of others etc and people will respond as such, they don't.
Why should it matter that others are still doing those things? Who cares?
Man is the ultimate machine, perfectly created or perfected by evaluation whichever you believe.
I recently subscribed and am going on a binge and liking every single video I've watched. I need to come back to these videos, especially like this "EGO" one every so often to be reminded of the need to keep balanced while also seeking "mastery".
ego is not the enemy. its like an animal. if tamed it can guide you
But also like an animal, if you stop feeding it, it grows hungry, and if you feed it a lot it gets more hungry more often, basically shrink your ego. 👍
The definition of Ego is self esteem and belief in one's self.
Great synopsis Nathan. You are a great time saver and information provider at the same time
I love the way you summarized his thoughts. It is really helpful and I can now see what Ryan meant by Ego is the Enemy.
Absolutely loved this video. Thank you so much for this valuable information mate. Lots of love from an Australian property 🇦🇺❤😀
Easier said than done but awareness is a step in the right direction.
I found out I have a massive Ego, working on shrinking it rn :)
Proud of you!
Yup, eh ... but sometimes it helps to have an ego. Like, it’s my ego when i go to the gym tell myself that one day I am goona do bench press with 12KG. Sometimes Ego motivates. Just saying . . . .
@@parths.1903 thats a rly bad example.
@@parths.1903 that is not ego..that is your wish man. Ego is when it kicks in and you start with 12kg instead of 1 kg dumbell
Remedy: Follow plus, minus, equal
1. Plus- surround yourself with someone greater and better than you
2. Equal- surround yourself with your someone of your level
3. Minus- surround yourself with someone whom you can teach, or write blogs
Thank you for your contribution to good 🙏🙏🙏
*Enemy or just our approach is wrong towards everything? What was said about "unchecked" ego is the key. Drukama is teaching these realizations if anyone's interested give it a look. Be well everyone.*
Thank you! I am having a hard time getting my ego in check and this was a great video🙏
Every word of that was in the FIRST HOUR of the 33-hour audio book.
Ego hava a partner call HATRED.
When this 2 join forces,
even god cant help you.
but than, sometimes in life
we needs this to protects us from big bully, If we can use this to balance the yin and yang, it is to our advantage, meaning, is only apply to ur enemy, but with great compassion and love to the people that help you during difficult times.
1) Remember those how help you during difficult time.
2)Always remember those who PUT YOU INTO THESE
DIFFICULT TIMES.
By far, my favorite of your summaries.
Thank You.
Once, upon a time, not too long ago, there was no ego. You were yet, but, a child, unaware of yourself and your actions. There was no connections with rewards, attention and recognition. You freely moved to do what ever the thought was that created intent. From this intent, you saw a vision, the end result of the intent. Your mind was silent through the entire task, and no matter how difficult or easy the task was, you had no clue, you simply had no connection with yourself, therefore, there was no connection with reality.
So, what if, reality isn't real. Its just an illusion to pull your interest to a set of specific values. This is used for the sole purpose of training someone. When, you look at reality, you should be able to see that it is a creation that took place sometime in the past. Now, what did you also have as a child? An imagination, through curiosity and your imagination, you lived in a state by which reality always fascinated you. What did you do with reality? You altered it, you changed it, you broke it or you improved on it.
However, this cool state, by the way allowed your brain to make DMT. Which is where fascination really gets sparked to new levels. Eventually, this period passed and what soon took hold of you would slowly develop your mind to feed on attention -from parents, relatives, friends, school classmates...etc. This would be the beginning to which would lead up to the creation of the "EGO" And all the while, you had no clue that this thing resided in you.
So, why didn't you have an "EGO" in the beginning of your life? Well, you didn't have a mind, so, your mind wasn't present to do what? Wander off to other things. Like the cool feed back you go from other people. Now, what is attachment? It wasn't there during the period you didn't have a mind.
Lets shorten this up. Tap out of having to need attention and recognition from anyone or anything. Let go of the need to attach to anyone or anything. Your "EGO" is going to fight this process. But, be mindful and push through, eventually, tiny pings of pleasant sensations will sound off in your body. The more you detach from reality, the bigger the pings will become, this will move you to realize something good is going on inside you, mentally and physically, eventually, you will be stepping back to the center of that foundation you were on in the beginning of your life.
What is coming will blow your mind away. Imagine, not knowing you exist. Every wakeful second, something is pulling on your interest and your attention is at the center of it. When, a thought pops up or someone ask you to do something, its always a yes. How nice would it be to be able to always look forward to what you're going to do next. This is the life of "JOY" Joy and happiness has always been in you, but, your "EGO" has moved you around so much that you have become a sensation chaser.
Lose the I, the me, the self recognition, the self-centeredness and you will find joy, happiness, being content with all of what you experience everyday.
Workshops coming soon to a high school near you. I teach a whole new level of being human. While, others teaches you how to create yourself. One question, How easily are you fascinated by all that your senses discovers every second of the day?
Wow! I love this channel and recommend to everyone one I know that is looking to grow.
Thank you so much.
Thank you. I like my channel too.
To the person reading this: Even though I don’t know you, I wish you the best of what life has to offer ❤
I wish the same for everyone who sees this too ❤
Wow thank you so much! I'm so glad I happened upon your channel today, this is such value that I wish I'd come across it a long time ago when I started my self-development journey more proactively. Yet today is as good a time as any to follow you and draw from your vast archive. Please keep doing what you are doing!! God bless you! :)
Let's not make the mistake of confusing ego with pride, your ego keeps your head on the swivel and that makes you highly functional individual in society, whereas pride, just like any other sin can make your life a living hell
Nice video 👍

The movie “revolver” is a great study of ego.
There is no Separation between you and your ego!!! When you deeply realize that the ego is just an abstract that you put together from childhood from the enteral world, the ego loses it's control streak! Then you are free being, finally tasting the Unconditional Love that has always been surrounding you. Then you never look for someone to love you. All there is, is Unconditional Love and Freedom.
remember that no one is really bad or really good you just simply are
Ego is not bad; not totally bad. It is necessary that you recognize and accept it.
Do not try to beat the river into submission. Rather surrender to its current and use its power as your own.
Thank you for your great work. I have shared and encouraged friends to check you out! Thanks again!
Ego is the enemy of true happiness and it is expensive. Ego makes us buy all the luxury. If we could defeat ego we will not need to work hard to impress strangers.
You are damn right
That’s what I’m working on right now. To be less vain and less materialistic. It’s not impossible, it’s just uncomfortable to let go of certain attachment to physical items, especially items I don’t have. It’s not even that I want to impress people, it’s that some things are so cute and beautiful, but I know that at the end of the day, they won’t bring me long term happiness.
@@Porcelynnn its so hard cuz ppl out there be hurting ur ego by saying that u r not enjoying life u growing old (losing time) etc etc
The Ego is not the enemy. It's the relationship between the mind ego and consciousness which needs to be balanced. The ego is essential, without it the are no storylines to life
He was not talking about in Freudian sense.
@@jamiekhokhar8705 The first statement, and the title of his book is Ego is the enemy.
@@mindremapping-CPS if you read the book itself then only then you'll realise what exactly ego is and I recommed you to atleast give it a try. Also author explains this very clearly in the prologue that the ego he is talking about is not the one from Freud's school of Psychoanalyis, instead it's emphasis is on entitlement and how it has ruined people's lives and relationships and how you can tame that beast!
@@jamiekhokhar8705 I will look at book on your reccomdation, but the title for me, is misleading.
Regardless of Freud or any definition of an ego, it still remains whatever that inner beast is, it is manufacturered by the mind
this is one of the best books I've ever read.
The title in itself "EGO IS THE ENEMY" has in it Egoic energy, which means Ego is in control of that moment.
You need ego to be confident without ego and confident you don’t risk and always believe you can’t do it you need to have a balance for a healthy behavior
"Resentment is weak and lowers your self-esteem" - Barbara Sher.
Thank you Ryan. I learned a lot from this book of yours. Stillness is the key is still a great book. God bless you
No ones 100% perfect how hard we try ego comes naturally..
Ego can also be hardened during times of adversity if you don't process or accept what happened - instead you keep adding narratives which feed the ego. The more you hold on to past wrongs or even remain angry at your own past reactions - then that just strengthens the ego in it's fear/defensive guise.
Wow sir what a great review,
Thank you sir, God bless you
Ego, everywhere in our society, despite being seen as problem haven't been solved yet because it's embedded in our biology.
Survival of the fittest requires ego.
I believe it can feel like dying when losing the ego.
This video put words to my illustrations. Thank you for the substance.
I don't understand the difference between self respect and ego ! Sometimes when I think I am standing for my self respect, they call it ego so I m perplexed what is ego and what is self respect !
checkout sadhguru on ego, he has very clear points.
There is healthy & unhealthy ego.
Don't be fooled.
What's the healthy one?
@@oscarmoreno2585 I believe it to be the one that would be confused as "selfishness".
I would say healthy ego is acknowledging the ego cannot be currently destroyed so to be in flow with it. But ego can help success e.g. drake, kanye.. so it’s confusing.. but i think healthy ego is like a type confidence, but as we all know confidence > ego
Perhaps humble confidence?
Exactly
Osxkarallmyfriendsaredead Delusional positivity, and a peace of mind.
Yes! I feel like i have that ego enemy to lol. And i hated so much when i feel that, and i just feel like im just an ego demonic, im fighting it and also accepting it as the monent or time im experiencing my ego enemy demonic ego i sense inside of me n you can say. Damn!
Has your situation improved? If so, do you have any advice?
Just one look at the guy currently in office and you know it's true. Much appreciated Productivity Game.
Thanks man. Great video, time to get writing!
it's amazing book and amazing illustration by you, you really described what's always happening with me when i aspire to do many things that i passion, i suddenly found a deep sound come from me says it's not good and not enough it will not make any change
and sadly i was listening to him and believe what he says and eventually i found out i did nothing valuable in my life because i always been in the comfort zone
so its great video cuz made me ready to fight this sound as much as i can
Laellaha, I'm happy the video inspired you. Stay strong and keep up the good fight!
The effort put into making this video, the best there is on the subject is truly commentable 👍
ego is absolutely NOT your enemy it is Everyone's Greatest Obstacle. It is why you are here on planet earth. it is who you identify as and it changes over your life if you are fluid. Without it you are nothing but consciousness which is beautiful but is not why you are here right now. You are here to be uniquely you. To conquer your ego and make it your best friend.
What i always thought is "I dont give a shit about other people except friends and family, so i dont expect people give a shit about me."
Didnt realize it train me to not follow my ego
Thank you very much for making this video...Wonderful summary..
That is probably excellent advice. The question is where do you find people like that.
I don't think my beats are good so let me get that out of the way before you guys go to my page. But I never realized how egotistical I've been until I found this video.. Ego really is my enemy as well as it is for a lot of people. I'm an artist as well and that is where my ego shined through the most. And looking back, it sickens me. Although I may not have been the type to.. gloat about what I do and say I'm the best at everything. I do talk about what I'm doing rather than putting the work out. And I struggle with finishing it, its not that I'm nkg creating. But I can never finish an idea and make it good consistently. So I worried about what people thought about me. I always admit when I'm wrong, I'm not just looking for ways to make me seem like I have no ego. But subconsciously, I feel like I've been battling with my ego for so long. Now that I've realized my problem, I will try to destroy it consciously
This is how you develop your ego into a mechanism that'll work against you... which is ironically it trying to protect you, even if it means keeping you in a human sized safe or turning you into a monster just to perserve image. Stay aware of your ego and learn to catch yourself often... you'll learn that the ego's can become a good partner that can keep you safe. Awareness is the key to navigating this and life in general; your body develops into what you manifest. A weak but a giant ego is mistaken as the enemy, rather than understand that you developed it that way. Broaden your horizon and you'll see that the human body is the stuff of biblical miracles
Watch out to not going too far with your Ego like I did. As it was my enemy ,at each time I was seeing it inside me I was intolerant and began to hate that entity. Big mistake. Some friend of mine told me as the Ego is a part of myself I have to love it too. It doesn’t mean I have to let it all the space but to recognize his value and be aware of his negative influence.
Thanks
Working with Dov is certainly enough experience on Ego to be book worthy
I found understanding that these days people are too concerned with them. Understand that it's not all about you . You don't take everything personally you will be more considerate and humble and less stressed. You will have empathy and respect for people and will not be as insecure and snobby.
What do you mean not everything is about me? How can you be so inconsiderate?
Thank you very much for such a review, it's really helpful
thank you!!!!! what an excellent summary. i cant afford such books , thanks so much,
I like your channel very much. Thanks 👍 for this great summary of these book.
keep it up bro

Are you Syrias?
Yes, he is syrias
I was considering buying this book but I'm so much better than everyone else that I don't need it
Another great summary. You do a great job of pulling the critical insights and sharing them. Thank you
Ego and arrogance can be felt when standing next to people like doctors, cops, judges, etc.
Why
The death of the ego is the most liberating experience in life.
But how can you kill an idea other than seeing what it really is, by seeing it loses its power. The ego is the idea you have of your self not what you truly are.
But ya got to walk through fire first 🔥
If by fire you mean Suffering then it's not necessary, but it takes real courage to look inside
I mean, technically, the ego dies if you also die lol
Thank you
One of the most helpful books I ever read. Thinking of having Ego Is The Enenky tattooed on my forearm.
Make sure you have them spell it right.
Thanks for this condensed wisdom
Ego is not the enemy. You are your worst enemy. We are the ego.
Avoiding the ego is egotistical in itself
