Shall we research ourselves?????

Here are a few more of Mr. Holiday's insights into how to understand this ego of ours.

Learn to manage (yourself and others).  How can you grow as a person if you keep constantly distracted and abandon one project for another.  Leading others with micromanging skills is not wise either.  It is not enough to be smart or a genius.  Find out what works.

Know what matters to you and ruthlessly say no to everything else.  Our ego wants it all.  Learn to integrate the concept of euthymia from the philosopher Seneca.  This is understanding the tranquility of knowing what you are after and not being distracted by others.

Forget credit and recognition.  When we are starting out in out pursuits we need to make an effort to trade short-term gratification for a long-term payoff.  Sweep the floor, clean the bathroom, do what needs to be done.  You still might have to do these things in the future, but be humble.

LENS neurofeedback works to create a higher functioning person.  It keeps the necessity of drug intervention at bay.  Be responsible for your health.
