>>/16590/ (you) >>/16388/ (you) PB >>/16599/ (you) DON'T GET RID OF EGO, USE IT TO DEFEAT THE DS! From a psychological researcher with decades of expertise in this area. '''Getting rid of ego is based no an outdated Freudian model: "try to contain the beast within". Rooted in a very negative view of human nature that only creates more negativity. Used by the DS to make people believe they are unworthy and need "help" in the forms of fake therapy, bad drugs, and gov't overseers. Disproven by science over and over again, but still part of our conditioning. Instead, use positive psychology--focusing on your strengths, not your weaknesses. FLOTUS' idea of "BE BEST". MUCH research to supports this idea. Professor Martin Seligman tried to get rid of depression in clients for decades (famous for "learned helplessness"). Didn't work til he started focusing on helping people develop their positive qualities. Mihaly Czikszentmihalyi also: teaches us to cultivate creativity, which leads to FLOW: new ideas, excitement, breakthroughs A positive view of human nature brings forth the desire to change, serve, and honor all that is wonderful and of God. When we have a positive goal, ego takes a backseat. Positive psychology wins the day. So when it comes to ego, don't worry about it. Instead, cultivate values that support your vision and habits that help you make good things happen. > Let go, we are divine Yes--and letting go means not worrying about the small shit, just keeping our eyes on the goal: WINNING, WINNING, WINNING!!! (BTW, notice that POTUS has a huge ego. But what matters is the way he uses it: to make America great again!!! We can do the same.)
