This is what it costs you to have the ego in full control and what is most scary , most of you are unaware that this is even happening until it is too late.
So if we are not aware of when ego is in control how can we figure it out?
Look simply at the results in your life and it is easy to see. If you have got the guts.
Your ego right about now will tell you that this is not true, that you do not have to, that you are just fine, you know this stuff.
So why do you run around looking for approval on your six pack abs or your bank account?
Why do you judge others with your better than or less than attitude?
Why do you use the words, I know, to complete sentences for other people?
Why are you thinking you are fine and that everything will be okay when your staff just walked out?
Why is it okay to scoot in line in front of someone else and you justify it because you are in a hurry?
Why do you insist that you do things your way?
Why do you demand that people respect you?
Why is playing the victim telling your story over and over again to anyone who will listen so important?
There are many more examples, these are just a few.
Talking the talk no longer does the trick to humbling the ego. Anyone with a sense of truth can see right through you. You must walk the talk.
That is what 2012 is all about. Being able to see the truth, the light, the essence of the higher self.
One cannot operate from the egoic self when the higher self is in control. One will not attempt to control when one operates from the higher self.
The ego when humbled is a great part of you. When it is in control, it will cause you grief. Your job is to humble it. Here are a few tips to prevent the ego’s onslaught.
- Meditate on gratitude when you wake up and when you go to sleep.
- Do one thing nice for someone every day where there is no agenda.(you get nothing in return)
- Exercise daily–cardio.
- Meditate for 10 minutes every day and 3 30 -60 minute session per week
- Get into relationhsip with someone that is important to you every day
- Go to work and produce something.
- Do what you say you are going to do.
You might want to know how this keeps the ego at bay. It keeps you balanced and life is not all about you. You do things for you because it supports you to help others such as exercise. You get into relationship with others so that you can admire those that are in your life. You produce something which allows you to feel productive. You meditate to bring it all together allowing you to raise your vibration so that you become aware quicker of when you are messing up. And most of all, do what you say you are going to do. If you are late, your agenda is more important feeding the ego even more.
