The ego is a self generated identity, consisting of every belief we believe about who and what we are.

This includes our personality, our talents and our likes and dislikes.

Theo E.

Ego is what keeps us locked away in our minds in an endless cycle of chatter separated from the present moment.

It is three identity created and reinforced by the story we tell ourselves.

Our stories are, however, just that stories they do not make up who we are.

Ecker Tolley says the most common ego identifications have to do with possessions.

The work you do.

Social status and recognition, knowledge and education, physical appearance, special abilities, relationships, personal and family history, belief systems and often nationalistic racial, religious and other collective identification ins.

None of these are you.

While the ego is an aspect of the human condition, it is not the true essence of who we are when we operate from ego were generally obsessed with right and wrong blame and shame.

Wear not acting from a loving place but a judgmental place.

Wear not acting from a place of how can I serve or how can I give rather what do I get and how do I look?

Learning toe.

Identify the traits and behaviours of the ego and then working to consciously make a different choice will drastically change your life.

Here are three tips on managing your ego to create a more peaceful, loving life, number one.

Stop taking things personally.

The ego loves to get offended.

It loves to feel wounded, and it thrives on pain and conflict.

When we choose to be offended over things, we are actively choosing to allow the ego to take hold of our lives and create pain.

In order to disassociate from this decision and make a different choice, we must recognize that love is our natural state.

Humans actually want to connect and feel joy, not misery.

If someone does or says something that makes you feel any negative emotion, you have two choices.

You can react and engage in conflict, or you can recognize that the trigger within you is an opportunity for your own growth.

You can choose to recognize that anything negative said or done from another is likely a projection of their own ego.

Don't waste your energy on ego battles.

Save it for love and service number to forgive.

The ego loves being right.

It sustains itself in this way.

The problem is it also keeps you from doing what you need to do to move closer to love and truth.

The ego is sort of like a weed.

In this way.

It may have pretty flowers for your inner garden, but if left unattended, it will choke out all of your other plants and leave you in a big mess.

When you forgive, you allow your heart to open and you separate from the need to be right, and instead choose love.

This is functioning from your true self.

Forgive others and forgive yourself to number three.

Let go and observe.

Let go of trying to be right trying toe win, trying to be seen trying to be heard.

Instead, observe the ego wants to prove itself and jump up and down to gain love and validation.

Our higher self doesn't need validation.

Our higher self knows that it is love by becoming aware of the ego, and it's need to be seen, heard and acknowledged.

You open up space to be seen and heard without expectation by observing without expectation.

You then see things as they are, you see people as they are rather than through a projected sense of lack, because they are not matching up to your egos demands in this space, There is also an opportunity to sit back and observe as to who or who is not functioning from a place where they can offer themselves up emotionally to give love, acceptance adoration to you.

This means we let go of controlling people in an attempt to have our needs met.

This is freedom, Eckert totally said.

The moment you become aware of the ego and you, it is strictly no longer the ego.

But just in old.

The conditioned mind pattern ego implies unawareness awareness and ego cannot co exist.

There is no denying that the ego serves its purpose.

But when the ego becomes the dominant process of your mind, you fall out of alignment with your true self.

With practice, you can learn how to manage your ego better and create a life that feels more peaceful, loving and authentic.

As Gandhi said, When the ego dies, the soul away in, Let your ego die a little more each day so your own soul can awaken and grow so your freedom and joy can grow so your piece can come forward.

Bless your life by letting go of your ego.
