Ego
Ego
- Ego is the feeling of separateness from God.
- Any esteem you hold of yourself except that you are God, is an expression of your ego.
- Sympathy is an ego booster - for the person giving it and the one talking it.
- Peer pressure is just a big ego game. It does not help your growth in any way.
- Seriousness is paying undue importance to something, at the cost of everything else.
- Seriousness kills spontaneity. Seriousness destroys creativity.
- When you are free from ego, you will act with freedom and courage.
- Using your wrong personality in the wrong place is what we call ego.
- The ultimate happens when you drop your ego.
- Nobody is a threat for you, and you are not a threat to anybody.
