      Don't forget the step of asking for forgiveness and never asking with an excuse in hand and with the sole and full intent of never making the same mistake twice, ever. It puts you out there in the mercy of the person you wronged.

      As long as the other apologizes, otherwise it’s pointless and you should apologize and cut off your relationship with them. To ensure that it does not grow.

      Exactly. I mean, saying sorry and aknowledging defeat doesn’t mean we are inferior. In contract it means that we are mature enough to recognise that the success of the organisation/goal is far far more important than our name.

    Ego is only and simply: the need to be thought of as special by others. It is born out of fear. If you were the last person on the planet you would have no ego. Ask yourself why do you want to be special? It is simply the fear of not being loved.

    The death of your ego is the awakening of your third eye. When the third eye is awakened you will see things from a different perspective a more wise and understanding one, your sixth sense will start to develop and you will obtain powers. For example if a person comes into my thoughts whom I haven't see for a long while 100% every time this happens within maybe an hour or two boom that person will appear. You will start to sense danger or trouble every time. You can get a sense of a person even just by being near them. There is a good gauge to see how peoples egos are in check just by listening to them for a while, if they say me or I'm or are talking about themselves a lot then probably best to avoid these people. Also egotistical and narcissistic behaviors can run parallel with each other and probably best to avoid people with these disorders. There are many stage's for enlightenment and losing the ego is the first step to being a better you. If you have taken the time to reading this humble opinion then you too are searching for a better you and a much calming happier better life.

    Ego is the frenemy that motivates each of us to do more. More than your lazy friends, thinking beyond the herd. However, feeding the ego is where things go wrong. The Ego needs to be managed like a child and be told when to stop talking. I was reminded about my own ego in the beginning of this video, however, i have realized that when things are getting warm in my endeavors, I need to improve on how I react to this as I've spent years at attempting results. The point is I"m aware of my ego based reactions. That's better than not. Just be aware, think back at how you react to things and learn to improve.

    I would also like the mention the other side of ego. For instance when you fail, your ego can make it all your fault and cause you to believe that you’re more likely to fail in the future. When you succeed, your ego can deflect it and not give you the credit you deserve. It sounds like humility, but it’s really just a small ego. Your ego can be too big or too small, but either way it’s still bad.

      However, the speaker of such a video just advices you how you can beat your ego.
      The bible says in Proverbs 11:25 (, I will modernize it) "Whoever gives others a lot, will be fed. And whoever gives others water, will receive water".
      Or the literal standard version: "A liberal soul is made fat, And whoever is watering, he also is watered."
      James 3:16 tells us about envy and conflicts:
      King James Bible: "For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work."
      1 Corinthians 10:24 talks about the care of others:
      "No one should seek their own good, but the good of others."
      The bible indeed is an interesting book, but has to be read with the help of the Holy Spirit, Jesus and interest to not be misunderstood.

    I've conceptualize ego recently in a way I relate a to a lot now. Life without ego, and life/nature in general IS a frequency, a wave. Moving electrons, light traveling, earth rotating, waves, tides etc. Ups and downs, embrace them (even the downs, let them reach they're lowest till it rises again) smile at the lows, push up the highs. Ego is absence a movement, it's fighting the movement, it want still, cold, mental, static block: death. Why ? I reckon it's a way to feel secure, still, mental blocking and failing is easy to accomplish, it can feel like home, peace. it's a way for the brain to embrace the fear of death and nothingness, when life's movement is too overwhelming and scary because it's above all and infinite and bound to change again and gain. Ego is a little death you accept right now, mentally, then in your life, to feel still. Instead of present life which is beautifully but sometimes hurtfully always moving, changing infinitely. Ego could simply be our finite boundary of intelligence. life if above all that.

    Ego isn't the enemy, in fact, it is a part of why you are alive. Your problem is believing that the ego is you (it is not.) Newsflash: The part of you that thinks that the ego is the enemy is also a part of that same ego, as the Ego is the only part of you that can make up 'enemies'. When you meditate, your ego eventually finds it's place as a useful tool rather than an out of control tyrant.
    The ego does not need to be silenced, it needs to be heard and not obeyed.

Contamination OCD and a pshciatric condition that made wearing clothes feel uncomfortable because they bring pain sensations to the skin. Often for people who are suffering form sever anxiety disorders or schizo tendencies. People didn't know it at the time so people just called him eccentric, but there was def more to Hughes downfall than just an ego.

    Ego hava a partner call HATRED.
    When this 2 join forces,
    even god cant help you.
    but than, sometimes in life
    we needs this to protects us from big bully, If we can use this to balance the yin and yang, it is to our advantage, meaning, is only apply to ur enemy, but with great compassion and love to the people that help you during difficult times.
    1) Remember those how help you during difficult time.
    2)Always remember those who PUT YOU INTO THESE
    DIFFICULT TIMES.

    The Bible has taught this all along. It’s all rooted in pride.
    Eve questions if God really didn’t want her to eat of the fruit. Cane burns with jealousy and murders his brother. The Jews murmur and complain that they aren’t provided with more than God has given them. Jesus warns about lust for money, status, and the pride of life.
    I read this book and feel like it’s a one-eyed observation of the human condition that doesn’t see the full picture.
    The truest form of destroying the ego (sin) is admitting that you can do nothing but accept the free love and forgiveness of God through Jesus. And living the rest of your days serving others.
    As Paul says “He must increase, but I must decrease.”

    I killed my ego and honestly I now regret it. If you do the same, the thing you'll learn is while you no longer recognize that part of yourself that wants to be vain, wants to take, wants to shine etc. When you finally get yourself there, everyone else will still be doing those things. It's just human nature to put it plainly. And if you think that you can change human nature by being more humble more conscious of others etc and people will respond as such, they don't.

    Ego is not bad; not totally bad. It is necessary that you recognize and accept it.
    Do not try to beat the river into submission. Rather surrender to its current and use its power as your own.
