How to Master Your Ego and Reach Your Full Potential

“History is also made by individuals who fought their egos at every turn, who eschewed the spotlight, and who put their higher goals above their desire for recognition,” reminds Ryan Holiday in his book, “Ego is the Enemy.”

Make no mistake. Your ego is one of your greatest mental enemies in life.

Your Strengths

1) Your Persistence

You never give up.

The world has thrown everything at you: Heartbreak, chaos, tragedy, career and business setbacks, and daily obstacles. But you’ve never given up.

2. Your Generosity

My friend Yanik Silver once told me, “You cannot out-give the universe.” Well, if anyone’s tried, it’s you. Your heart shines through in good times and in bad. You’re always there for everyone.

Your Weaknesses

1. You Forget About You

You’ll do anything to take care of the people around you, but you forget to take care of you.

2. You Hold Back

People are out there “crying themselves to sleep” because they don’t have your help. You know it. You’ve heard them. And yet you’re still not being the leader that you can be for your team or your customers.

3. You Are Being a Pushover

You’ve done so much great work in your industry. People owe you. Yet you’re afraid to ask what you are worth. This is holding you back from enjoying the wealth and personal growth you deserve.
