egoSometimes all that it takes is to stand back, let your ego pass by, and everything will be A-OK. I know what ego can do, for I am a leo, and someone along the way told me you leo’s have big gigantic ego’s, I believed him.When a persons ego takes over his mind and blinds him, life tends to take different shape and form in our day to day encounters and communications. We tend to block any thing and everything this person in front of us is saying and only hear what comes out of our mouths and flies around in our heads.

Lessons in life seem to come out from our side but never the other way around. Peoples ideas are nothing more than a session of load noisy drumming. When we are faced with reality and we need to run, we choose to stay and fight it out like big boys do even though we are not fit for battle. When all you need to do with a threat is avoid any kind of contact or response, we say “ YOU TALKIN TO ME? HUH? You Wanna piece of this?” next thing you know a body bag has someone’s name on it.

EGO comes in all sizes and shapes, some are big some are tiny. Some are caressed and some are tamed, other go untouched till death. But sometimes you have to state your ego, in some cases time and time again.

These incidents should take place with people who also practice their deprived childhood fantasies when fully grown, translated in french spells EGO. The ugly face in front of you, and what’s his face seem to be blowing up and away their ego exceeding normal standards. You know when you get to this big family meeting and you can identify the ones with the low self esteem and the Ego centric monsters who make up about two thirds of the room, and then the normal ones. Well, in the first place I bet you that an ego monster made the low self esteem product one way or the other, by being a father, a brother, a husband, a wife, a mother, an older sister and so on.

I never said you don’t have to have some kind of ego, its the control that worries me. Like power is nothing without control, and growth is nothing without direction or guidance, so is ego without that fine tuning effect. Never let anyone take advantage of you or your thoughts, thats good ego and self confidence combined. Never step on someone you know is weaker than you , cause your ego will come right back and slap you in the face my friends.

How to deal with ego is a whole other ball game. You have two sides to the story of dealing with ego folks. One is to avoid them and let them barge in whenever they like and let them do whatever damage they are good at and be the sitting duck.Two, you can confront on a smart basis to defuse the poor soul. Talking to her or him( I hate this him/her thing, I should stop it) in their own language. Then eventually one day pointing out the fact of the matter point blank.

How you handle your own ego is different, you should always check on your self and ask others opinions, only very close friends, it might hurt, but its the good kind of hurting that makes you a better person.Believing that you do have an issue is half the remedy.

If its one thing that can be identified as the number one reason keeping you away from your full potential, it would be Ego.

To have ego means to believe in your own strength. And to also be open to other people’s views. It is to be open, not closed. So, yes, my ego is big, but it’s also very small in some areas. My ego is responsible for my doing what I do – bad or good.
