Ego

When a child is born, he has no ego.
He slowly starts recognising himself,
and an identity is established. With
age, by learning and interacting, ego
starts evolving.
People who behave arrogantly
are often called egoistic. They consider
themselves to be on a higher
platform and don’t communicate on
an equal level. As a result of this,
they end up losing friends or find
it difficult to make friends.
A case in point: Hitler and
Napoleon. Had they not been egoistic
or arrogant, the world may have
been different. Even today, conflicts
play havoc in our relationships at
home and outside.
The opposite of ego is humility.
A humble person will avoid conflict
of any manner. For him, avoiding a
conflict and maintaining peace is
much more valuable than having a
temporary feeling of being superior.
When there is no conflict, there is
peace of mind, and therefore, better
health. Humility also brings out an
attractive personality.
So, how does a person with an
inflated ego develop humility?
There is only one way to do that:
Surrendering the ego to God by realising
that a superpower exists, which
not only controls the earth, but also
the whole universe. This thought
can automatically subdue one’s ego.
A humble person is more respected
in society, he is more at peace with
himself and his family, friends, colleagues,
etc. His charming personality
attracts others to him, and in
my opinion he is likely to be more
successful as a professional than
an egoistic person. This in no way
means that one surrenders one’s
self-respect. But by being an egoist,
one loses respect in society. So,
develop a personality that has no
ego, and you will definitely live a
better life.
