How your sense of self is affecting how you feel about yourself! (EGO)
Hello Friends here!
What is the ego?
All people possess an inner self. There are many ways to define the term "sense of self," but to put it simply, it refers to your perception of your unique personality or feelings of self-importance. Your ability to recognize your "uniqueness," to advocate for yourself, and to carry out your plans will make a difference.
In any case, it is absolutely crucial that you simply pay attention to how your inner self affects your decisions because it may have a negative effect. If you can recall a time when something you did or said led to unfavorable outcomes, this was likely the result of your conflicted inner self.
Improving your relationships with others, as well as your ability to manage others and yourself, depends greatly on your awareness of your self-image. I've discovered that learning to be more self-aware has made me happier.
How the sense of self works
Feeling alive is your ego's responsibility. It is necessary for its survival. Tragically, this translates to your self-image, which needs to fight and defend itself. It may seem ridiculous, but the self image needs bad things to happen in order to have something to worry about, something to change, or something to do. Your self-image will therefore already be looking for something to cling to or a drama to create if everything is going well for you.
Although it may be true that the past and future exist as if in the mind and that the present minute exists as if in the show, your self image requires you to be thinking about the past and future. This suggests thinking about things that have gone wrong in the past or that will be off-base in the future. Every time you take something to run the show, it is usually an expression of your self-image.
This means your self image is speaking if you recall a time when someone was rude to you and you're feeling irritated at them, or if you feel inconsiderate to them as a result. If you worry about an upcoming event, your self-image is the one speaking. It's your self image speaking if you receive some feedback that you don't like, regardless of whether it was justified or not.
How the sense of self can cause harm
Your inner self removes you from the display momentarily. Imagine spending your entire life worrying about the future and the long term only to realize that all you ever had was the present moment. However, you were too mired in your thoughts to fully lock in your abilities and fully appreciate the world around you. Here's how to know when your sense of self takes over:
There's nothing wrong with having an ego, and nothing wrong with feeling important, but the self image should be directed. The problems arise when it influences your decision-making, temperament, or turns you into a victim, an underdog, or makes you feel less important to others in order to justify your behavior. These things make you unhappy. Your self-image will fight this reality, despite the fact that it needs to look to the past and the future to find problems so it can protect itself. It has to fight. It does not require you to be at ease. Your ego requires a foe - a circumstance or an issue to feel superior or greater than. This prevents you from taking charge of your life and accepting things as they are. In any case, you'll be able to learn to recognize how things are by essentially noting when your self image is interferometer and tenderly bringing it back into line.
You are not your mind.
The majority of people completely recognize themselves in the voice in their head. Have you ever considered the possibility that this isn't entirely your fault? Over time, you'll reconsider who you think you are and how you perceive others. This will help you make better decisions. This can be the difference between saying "I'm stupid" and saying "Sometimes I make stupid decisions." The difference between these two points of view is enormous. Others, for example, "He could be an apathetic person" and "He isn't exceptionally engaged" are extremely diverse. Typically used in administration. Great managers recognize that everyone has the potential to be a winner, with only a few being mislabeled as failures. Poor directors look down on people.
Longer term, you may become disturbed, pitiful, angry, worried, or fearful. It's fair to your inner self and to your intellect. Our culture idolizes the intellect, oblivious to its flaws and pitfalls. If you react strongly (on instinct) to someone's advice or a specific situation, remember that it's not 'you' who is the problem, but your sense of self. If you make this minor but significant change, you will be a lot happier and more level-headed. Your sense of self constitutes a significant portion of who you are. Your intellect accounts for a significant portion of your personality. You are aware that your subconscious has recently made decisions. You don't have to think about almost feeling, breathing, the beating of your heart, or the absorption of your nourishment, your proximity to the universe, and your senses of scent, touch, taste, and sound. All of these things apply to you as well. You're more than your self-image - more than your intellect.
