Confronting the Truth About Ourselves
Our Egos: Not Always Our Friends
It’s no secret. We all like to be right. And the stronger our egos, the more likely we insist that we are in fact right.
But clearly, we can’t always be right, and too often, because of our unchecked egos, we fail to see the truth of a matter.
Our egos are useful in helping to define us as unique manifestations. But if they take over, they end up creating barriers to our growth. And in doing so, they can do more harm than good.
There’s something to be said for having strong egos. Otherwise, not much would likely get done. But, there’s also something to be said for being honest about whether or not they’ve taken control of our lives.
If they have, looking inside ourselves for how to get them back in line, would be a smart thing to do.
