We all have negative ego – although in varying degrees. Highly evolved individuals have less negative ego than others. Nonetheless, even highly evolved individuals carry elements of negative ego.
When you feel you have overcome negative ego, that also leads to falling for ego. In other words we never really fully overcome it. That keeps us on guard and humble.
Usually, when negative ego overtakes us we are given a lesson in life that brings us back to the earth.
The key to success is to transform negative ego into positive pride. How does one do that?
– believe you have enormous power and talent which has been given to you as a gift
– use that talent to make the world a better place
– every day touch someone with your kindness, love, compassion
– realise that you are a traveller in this world and here only for a short period and one day you will get old and die. The only thing that eventually will have meaning for you will be your values, principles and be giving!
