Welcome back to the Jason Goldberg Is Ruining Podcasting Podcast! In this episode, Jason talks about Ego, and how we can make it our reasoned guide. Ego can be defined as our self identity, our ideas and opinions about others and the world and our sense of self consciousness – all at the same time. But Ego is also seen as a bad feature in a person and getting rid of it is seen as the right thing to do. What if you switch throwing away your Ego by simply being aware of it? Using it instead of being used by it? You will learn that Ego exists to conduct us in the right direction and help us make better choices. “Common knowledge and belief is that the Ego is your enemy. That it works against you, that it holds you back from growing and being successful, that it hurts your relationships, and makes you an arrogant shmug if not taken care of. But what if your Ego can actually be your gateway to, not only your own personal fulfillment but, to actual meaningful contribution in the world?” – Jason Goldberg Jason also explains the concepts of FREEgo and FLEEgo. FREEgo as being our sense of free thinking, free will and freedom. Freeing ourselves of feeling guilty for having wants and needs. Freeing ourselves of being ashamed for setting boundaries, having self-love, but also freely being of service and being there for others. And FLEEgo as being our sense of running away, or escaping situations. Fleeing from different things, new experiences and difficult conversations. Fleeing help and fleeing being helped. “We hear this all the time: that we should focus on being more self aware. Well, we need a bit of the idea of separateness that the Ego can provide to know how truly self aware we are becoming.” – Jason Goldberg These two notions of the Ego are important to consider. To turn a FLEEgo into a FREEgo, firstly you need to be aware of both of them, observing yourself, and noticing what situations they appear in. Only by acknowledging your Ego, you will start making it your amigo. Instead of being pushed away by it, use it to pull you back to center. Key Timestamps [3:15] – What is the definition of Ego?
