Ego, egoism, there is a difference. Ego is everything that keeps us awake, in a conscious state of existence. Egoism is our identity that assures us that we are the smartest, the most intelligent, the best in everything ... If we rely only on egoism, it creates an apparent shield, but in fact it is the weakest link in the chain of self-confidence, and it is the easiest to break down.
There are many great life stories that serve as an inspiring example, and an example speaks louder than any argument.
Sara Blakely, declared to be the youngest millionaire, was deprived of the opportunity to enter the Faculty of Law due to insufficient average. That's why she decided to go into sales. Every evening after work, her father would ask her what she failed to do that day, which meant she was trying. Too often we don't take risks because we're afraid of failure, and that actually only feeds our egoism. Conversely, if we dare to try, our exponential capabilities will expand constantly. Today, Sara is the owner of the "Spanx" company. The value is estimated at 1.2 billion.
Baraba Corcoran had one dysfunction growing up, she was dyslexic. Many have characterized her as someone who lags behind in development. She was always behind her peers. After a difficult period of internal struggle and constant belittling, she managed to improve her reading in the seventh grade. On one occasion, she said that school was like a prison for her. When she got out of that limited circle, she began to create beyond the limits of the frames that were set for her at the time. Oftentimes was possessed by long-standing fear that she needed to prepare much longer than others, before trying anything. Barbara founded a company worth 66 million dollars, The Corcoran Group. Starting with just $1,000, she often said that her “failures” were her biggest inspiration to keep going.
