In this episode of “Hate It Or Love It,” Steven Almeida dives deep into the delicate balance between ego and integrity. Steven reflects on personal experiences and observations within the industry, highlighting how ego can be both a powerful driving force and a potential downfall. He emphasizes that while ego is essential when pursuing your dreams—protecting you from naysayers and doubters—it must be kept in check to avoid overshadowing integrity and true progression.
Key Takeaways:
1. The Dual Nature of Ego: Steven explains that ego plays a crucial role in achieving your dreams. It’s the armor that defends against criticism, doubt, and disbelief, providing the self-belief needed to push forward.
2. When Ego Becomes the Enemy: While ego can carry you to success, it becomes detrimental when it overpowers integrity. Steven warns against letting ego become your identity, as it can lead to negative outcomes, especially when execution doesn’t match ambition.
3. Integrity as a Compass: Integrity is just as necessary as ego on the path to success. Steven stresses the importance of “killing the ego” when it hinders integrity, as integrity helps maintain authenticity and guides long-term success.
4. Ego Without Execution: Ego without the ability to execute can lead to a loss of respect and credibility. Steven candidly describes how an unchecked ego can make one look foolish when not backed by results.
Memorable Quotes:
• “Your ego is going to carry you because your ego is what’s going to defend you against the naysayers, the doubters, and all of that.”
• “You have to kill the ego when it’s in the way of integrity.”
• “When you can’t execute on things and you got this big ego, you’ll just be looking like a clown in the corner.”
