It’s you.

How’s your ego doing these days? Finding yourself in conflict with yourself and others, yearning to be right and painting things as black and white as if you’re the moral compass? Have you accessed your humility and gratitude lately? Seriously, when’s the last time you said a meaningful “thank you”? How many enemies are you creating by standing on your self-righteousness? Or are you just isolating while bitterly hoping people check for you despite not offering up any insight into your soft place? What about your patience? How have others spoken to you, about you (e.g. like what do you think they’re saying about your behavior right now, honestly?). What have you been saying about them, to them? Fam, it’s time to check in. If your ego overloads like mine tends to, then you’re probably at odds with many, including yourself and feeling that rumble in your belly or fire in your chest and head. Don’t let ego rock your world. It sounds simple stupid, but a little presence and acceptance smoothes us out. Check for the power that resides deep within, not the one that masquerades in your bark and bite. Love yourself. Fall back. Shut the fuck up. Say “I’m sorry” or “thank you” without expectation and judgment. Mean it. Stop being entitled. Admit you’re wrong…a lot. Peace fam. Or do you wanna fight about this too?

  1. This Right Here!! I’ve struggled with ego for a long time and I found that all it did was put me in a space of negativity. Through the years I’ve gotten better but every now and again ego peaks out. I guess it’s an On going battle.
