We are all, undoubtedly, familiar with the
ever present, relentless ego’s and its invasive insistence on making life less
than ideal. We have learned to recognize
ego’s intrusions. Recognizing its methods
helps us to understand that it is not part of our true identity.
We are only held captive by its influence
if we choose to identify with the feelings that ego creates. The more we identify with it, the more we
empower it energies. Many live
completely under its destructive influence.
It is never too late to recognize its existence, release its grip and
re-energize our free will.
Some may ask “Why would I want to dispel my
ego? It serves me well”. If it is serving a positive purpose, it is
not the ego. It may be your guides, your
inner self or your intuition that propels these positive ideas forward into
your consciousness.
The ego’s purpose is to stifle your growth
in whatever way works for that particular moment. It is that relentless voice that stops you
from moving forward in life. It is not
that quiet reassuring voice that ensures you that you can do this, that you can
succeed or that you are worth it. The
voice of ego says that you do not have what it takes to excel in whatever goal
you are aiming for at this moment.
Your goal is to release yourself from its
hold, to recognize it for what it is and to stop identifying with its constant
negative nattering. You can begin this
process any time. You can start today
and by recognizing how the ego works, you can identify it which will ensure you
awareness of its intent.
The ego weakens and begins to lose its hold
the more we recognize its negative chatter.
It will fight to retain its mastery.
It will fight hard to hold its ground and it becomes intense in its struggle
to sideswipe the control you are gaining over your thoughts and their process. Eventually Ego’s nattering is as silly and
ridiculous as those “justifying thoughts for just one more” of an
ex-smoker. At this point the nattering
is laughable and ego settles into its true place to help you awaken to your
true identity, which is spiritual in its nature.
The process is yours to unfold. No one else can set this process in motion. Understand that it takes time and commitment
to begin to notice any change, but it will come. It has taken your entire life for ego to
obtain the control that it has and for most of us it will take some time to
make this positive shift. We all move at
our own speed. Do not back off. Never give up. Eventually you will win the battle. It is yours to win and nothing stands in the
way, but ego.
