How a Big Invisible Ego Thrives on Anxiety - Episode 44

Growing up I was riddled with social anxiety and never confident or sure of myself.

But, unknowingly I had a huge ego. Maybe I still do, and answering that question honestly for yourself is very telling of how big or small your ego might be…

We often think having a big ego means you’re loud or overly confident or arrogant.

Not true. This can actually be completely false.

Having a big ego means you think you're always right.

Having a big ego means you think the world is to blame.

Having a big ego means you think everything else has to change, but not you.

Having a big ego means you’re always thinking about yourself, yourself, and yourself again, positive or negative.

I’m not writing this article to insult you or even call you out. That’s your job.

Personally, I realized I had an ego and separated myself from it in 2015 when I was actually suicidal, depressed, and saw how terrible life can get if you listen to your ego.

All I can do is share some information, insights, research and get you to think outside of your bubble and more into the real world; where our potential lies.
