Episode 3479: Briana Harry explores the struggle of confronting and disarming the ego, especially when it resists criticism and personal growth. She reflects on how insecurity can fuel defensiveness, particularly in creative pursuits, and emphasizes the importance of self-honesty, openness to feedback, and doing the work to improve. True confidence isn’t about avoiding critique, it’s about embracing it as a tool for growth. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.yemash.com/writers-corner/the-big-bad-ego Quotes to ponder: "I’ve found that I don’t like to be challenged. Which is kind of bad considering as people we should want the other people around us to challenge us in a way that makes us better, right?" "Your ego is only a big bad monster because it feels the need to protect you from the pain of not being good enough." "When you know you haven’t put your all into your work, and when you go to show it off and people don’t like it, the pain is not in you not being good enough, it is in you not doing enough."
