EGO
Ego is an opinion that you have about yourself. It's oftentime mistaken for giving yourself the respect that you deserve but it's not, it's about thinking that you are capable of more than you deserve and taking so much pride in the good deeds you do. There is a big difference between Ego and self respect that must be known. When you are being conscious of your achievements and self, it's a good thing but doing it in excess can play as being egotistical and self-centered.
Personally, I feel every single person is born with this trait but very few know how to have control over it. There are people who are obiously pompous and like to get praise for the least things that they do but on the other hand there are people who hide all the negativity around them but deep down there is the disease called EGO. The irony is that they don't even know that Ego is embedded in them but first to get rid of Ego, one need to first discover. On the discovery journey, we must make sure to be composed enough in our daily conversations, welcome and implement other people's opinion rather than preferring yours alone all the time.
In the event that you are in a gathering with your freinds and your ideas aren't appreciated and you ultimately feel offended, you might not be in the know but you definitely have a big Ego problem. The easiest way to fix this is to admit and let it go.
It is of great importance to sacrifice your Ego for living a better life. This is the best way to humble ourselves and kill our Ego.
Bring your guards down, you are not the only one that matter.
