A human being is part of a whole, called by us the ‘Universe,’ a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest—a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.
ALBERT EINSTEIN
Ego should not drive my decisions or my feelings. It is important that the heart makes the decisions but validate with the mind. No dissonance should exist between my head and heart. If there does then I need to relook at my decision.
There are times that I feel very at peace. These are the times when my head and heart are in agreement. Exstinctively, I often know the right decision and need to trust myself.
How much is the ego involved in my decisions?
Can I separate my ego from reality to reach my goals?
