Pros and Cons of a massive Ego



o start off, I thought I’d describe what the ego is exactly and tell you if you have one…

The ego is a dirty little thing that we all need to get into check, otherwise we’ll drive quality people away and only attract the wrong ones. The ego is centered on greed and thirst for power. A man that loses control of his ego never has true happiness and will be rejected by most.

Even if you are the strongest guy in town, no one wants to know it and it is definitely not going to impress any woman you’ve just met. Neither is telling them how much you can bench or what you are studying/studied.

Most women don’t care about that, all they care about is how you make them feel. They care about whether you are fun or not, whether you are a good person, whether you will stand up for them if someone disrespects them, whether you are genuine… All of these things are what matter most.

Yes a woman can appreciate a guy that has his finances in check, but not if he has a shitty attitude or stresses her out everytime she is with him.

The truth is that whether you can conquer your ego or not. Don’t ever expose it and the better you get at this, the more success you’ll have with attracting people as a whole.

I’m going to list 3 things never to talk about which will steer you clear of looking like a douche A.K.A. egomaniac.

#1-Don’t brag:

Yes, this is a good start and I know some of you may have been able to pull some foreign girls bragging about how you were the captain of the lacrosse team, but don’t do it anymore. Instead use DHV’s. Learn the art of the DHV (Demonstration of Higher Value). Learn to tell DHV stories that are humorous and enjoyable to hear.

#2-Don’t get jealous:

One of the biggest signs of not just a big ego, but an insecure person, is getting jealous of other’s attention. Some guys are even in denial. I see this a lot and you’re garbage if you let yourself get jealous easily.

Sometimes guys even go as far as to start knocking their long-time friends while he is with an attractive girl he just met. It’s not cool and if you have a guy like this in your social circle then I suggest cutting him loose. He isn’t mature nor socially developed enough to be around you and your friends.

#3-Be modest:

If you don’t know want modest means, then look it up…

Just kidding, modesty is basically the opposite of arrogant. When a guy is arrogant then he views himself as being better than everyone. It makes him feel powerful to have people wait on him and to do him favors, etc.

The opposite would merely be, saying thank you when someone does something for you; whether it be taking your coat at the coat check or even just moving out of the way so you can get by.

Modesty is viewing yourself as equal to the rest of the world and working together for a greater good or better world. It’s being a team player and naturally, anyone can see why this is an attractive trait.

Now to conclude…

The ego is a massive battle for most of us and even the most spiritual and giving person can have one. We can’t always get rid of it completely, because in a lot of ways it’s necessary in order to keep the burning drive required to be successful; this is debatable but I feel this is true.

Nevertheless, whether we have a high appreciation of ourself does not mean we need to share it with the rest of the world; bottom line. Instead, pet your ego by demonstrating discipline, class and charisma.

For any of you that want a better understanding of what I’m talking about I’ll leave you a wonderful personal development piece called…
