"If you want to improve, you must be content to be thought foolish and stupid."
-Epictetus
The definition of ego is greatly vaired and confused.
ego
-a person's sense of self-esteem or self-importance.
-the part of the mind that mediates between the conscious and the unconscious and is responsible for reality testing and a sense of personal identity.
related to;
egotism
a : excessive use of the first person singular personal pronoun
b : the practice of talking about oneself too much
c : an exaggerated sense of self-importance
many consider ego as being a meglomaniac, conceited, and overly prideful
partially true,
but having an ego doesn't make you bad-
but the ego having you? allowing it to control you?
that is bad
If you feel as though you have been egotistical,
understand it was wrong
understand you must try to refrain from that
most importantly;
you must forgive yourself
