How you can understand this concept and relate it to success and personal development. It’s how to get more success in your life by understanding ego.
What is ego? Ego is basically that aspect of yourself that you consider you. So that is when you, I say your name and you think, Yeah, that’s me, that is ego.
It has its own mass to it and it’s hard to reorganize that. It’s hard to go in there and pull a strand out and create something that’s actually useful and something that’s going to get you a better level of performance. A lot of personal development is about working with your ego.
You can reach it like, for example, Buddhist monks reach it after decades of meditation and contemplation.
What happens is that through a rigorous training process, they have numbed down their ego so much that they dissolve it and they no longer have that boundary between themselves and the rest of the world. They feel a sense of oneness that we cannot even imagine.
