Recognize

the ego

Mind Tasting
2 min readFeb 11, 2019

The ego is behind
every negative emotion
in the mind

Recognize it

The ego is always operating from a position of neediness

a need for validation
a need for attention
a need for control

the need is never ending
even when it gets what it wants
the ego wants more

more validation
more attention
more control

The ego is always in resistance with the present moment

unwilling to accept what is
the ego judges
the present moment
and needs it to be
a different way

The ego believes
it is “supposed” to be
a certain way

There is no “supposed” to be
There just is

Recognize the ego

observe how it arises in your consciousness
it is almost always disguised as fear or anger
or worry or insecurity or frustration or resentment

Be still
& take
a
few
deep
breaths

Simply watch your mind
as the ego attempts to control you
control your behavior

By acknowledging the ego for what it is
you release yourself from its grip

Now you are free to rise above it
into a higher level of consciousness

Thank you for giving my words your time and attention.
