Overcome your need to be better than anyone else...
The human ego can be one of the most self-destructive mechanisms of a person’s character and abilities. The ego is the part of us that wants to be in control. It separates us from our surroundings and is the force that gets in our way of experiencing a meaningful, successful life. The ego referred to above can also be called the “negative or inflated ego.

Manage your ego to reach your full potential.
​When your ego is overwhelming you, you will do things and say words you will regret, and hurt the people around you. This negative ego can make people loose respect for you and will stand in your way to true happiness and success. Your ego can be both good and bad, so what matters most is how we handle it. See it as a tool that can be used to your advantage, but make sure it does not go out of control, as then it will turn toxic.
​
Signs that you might be driven by negative ego:
  • You are concerned about the opinion of others.
  • You do not want to ask others for help.
  • Comparing yourself to others.
  • You are in permanent competition with the people around you.
  • You are not content with what you have and feel the constant need for more
  • You do not live in the moment.
  • You have the need to always be right.
  • You always need to be in control of every situation.


When you let go of the negative ego, you will much easier achieve a high level of success in your life.

Steps on the way to get rid of your negative ego:
  • Forgive other people and do not be offended. Learn to forgive other people and most important learn to forgive yourself. Let go of the past and keep moving on. 
  • Realize that you do not always have to be right. This is narrow-minded thinking and leads to many opportunities unseen, judgment, and criticism.
  • Better yourself and learn from your mistakes.
  • Live in the present. Your ego will not easily stay content in the moment.
  • Be Grateful for all that you have. Do you always have to have the best, or be the best?
  • Being honest with yourself and others. Learn to say no. Embrace the things and people that add value to your life.
  • Enjoy "me time" Take a few minutes every day to just be with yourself in silence.
  • Practice the giving of your time and energy, to help others.
