Today, we’re answering the question whether or not we should rid ourselves of our ego. Before we can answer that, we have to understand what ego is. It’s you, as a person, what you think and feel. It depicts how you react to the outside world. Outside our ego, we have primitive drives, such as the fight or flight response. We also have influences from our social and physical environment. Most people will usually fluctuate between these two.
If we have a strong ego, we can stay true to ourselves and not let other factors drive us. Without ego, we’re controlled by our nervous system or by the world around us. So, knowing your ego is what makes you uniquely you, do you really want to get rid of that? The ego gets a bad rap, but it actually serves a great purpose. Don’t rid you of you, instead make your ego the strongest it can be.
