Think about what bugs you in life? I think it all comes down to ego. What do you think? Give examples, if you care to.------------------

I agree. It's all ego but without one, we won't be in human form.IP: Logged |

I am in love with Tom Petty *SIGH*
Anyway, for all his success, he is so humble. He has a genuine and authentic sense of self. Humility does not mean weak. It means knowing who you are( and who you are not) and valuing yourself with it all.------------------

To me, ego is positive when it can allow one to rely on it during the rough patches in life that we all experience.IP: Logged |

Yes, that is positive self esteem imo. We are just mixing up words

Looks that way..  Ego is sort of the air in the tire of self confidence. IP: Logged |

Not much bugs me anymore.... I'm not sure if it's because I've become so numb or just don't care, or I've lost a bit of ego.  Whatever the case may be, it's nice.  IP: Logged |

The way I'm being treated by my sister, for one.The way she's been allowed to treat me like this for months, and the fact that my parents don't have the balls to tell her that they believe me and agree with me. Those are two things. IP: Logged |

This is the way to get rid of ego imho
Be beaten up, abused, kicked, slapped and pushed down by so many people that you say "The HECK with it"  ------------------

I know what you're getting at, but I'm sick of it. The contempt and the attitude every single day.She's accusing me of spreading slander now. Maybe she needs to contain her own ego. IP: Logged |

I wasn't talking to you, teasel. There is a time to stand up and punch someone in the face, figuratively.There is a time to punch someone so hard they don't mess with you anymore. It takes that, with some people. They only understand a hard kick to the groin.
That is not against ego reduction. One needs to have that tool in one's tool box and use, when called for. ------------------

yeah the whole "the heck with it part" I've been stood up enough to not let it ruin my day. Why give someone who is being lame(not spending their time on me of course) have power over how my day goes?Whether I hang out with someone else, go for a run, get something done. lol Either way it's empowering to take your day back.
