0:12 Become, aware, awake and conscious 

0:33 Identify what’s going on for you

Instead of becoming reactive, you become responsive

0:46 Book: “Clear Your Way Home” by Marci Baron

Ego: According to Wayne Dyer:

  1. I am what I have
  2. I am what I do
  3. I am what other people think of me
  4. I am separate from everybody else
  5. I am separate from what’s missing in my life
  6. I am separate from Source,God or Universe

1:43 EGO = Edging God Out

This is keeping you from connecting to your truest essence

2:10 We come into this world with amnesia, then we get to remember who we really are

2:24 Why do we have an ego?

It is created to keep you safe

It is serving your survival

2:43 It doesn’t want you to move forward because the known is familiar. Even if the unknown is healthier.

3:01 Ego is here to keep you safe

3:39 Ego is the gatekeeper to your separation to others and to your higher self

3:52 Test of Judgment to the Self and Others

Releasing Judgment is the way you heal

4:11 The more you become aware of what your ego is telling you, then you can calm that voice

4:32 First, acknowledge and notice the story going on in your mind

5:20 Second, Ask yourself, “Is this story really true?”

5:43 Your ego is telling you a story based on the past

5:56 Third, soothe your ego. 

6:44 We have a better story to tell about what’s happening.

All is well.

We can do this.

7:24 Everything is happening for our highest good. 

7:32 The past has nothing to do with the present or future. 

7:51 Your ego is creating a story to keep you safe. It typically comes from childhood.

8:29 What you’ve experienced is unique to you.

10:10 A friend who cut off opinionated people because of ego, used the three steps.

11:24 We don’t have to disconnect, disassociate, or leave in order to keep safe.

“I can stay in this friendship even though we have different opinions.”

12:06 Looking for that inner parent to acknowledge the pain the inner child has gone through. 

12:44 Everything shifted for her.

12:46 You get to decide. 

“Do I come in unity with myself or others?”

13:32 Just be kind to your ego. Befriend your ego. Know that it’s here to keep you safe.

13:50 Make a different choice of love and passion and curiosity when it comes to the stories you’re telling yourself.
