Don't Believe Everything You Think

I had always thought of the Ego as being prideful, arrogant, boastful, you can add more of your own adjectives to it that apply. One of the things that I have discovered is that Ego is also those times when you are feeling lesser than. These are those times when you think that the conversation that someone is having is all about you, and not in a good way. I was talking to someone the other day, who told me that when she was in a restaurant she over heard two women talking about her. I asked her if she knew these women and she said “No, she had never seen them before”. I asked her why she thought they were talking about her and she said because one of them looked up at her as she was walking by. It is interesting how our Ego can get in the way. If we take the opportunity to recognize the times that it is our Ego talking than we can start to work on the things that are motivating what we are thinking. Be careful, Don’t Believe Everything You Think!
