As for as this world is concerned it contains many kinds of children in their character. Some may be good at studying, some may be best in playing and some others may be bad at speaking etc.., those characters are formed by their surrounded environments, peoples and so on. 
And the thing is, if we really want to change our character we have to accept our positives and negatives wholeheartedly. Usually our ego wont allow us to accept our negatives.

Our history tells, We humans are in this earth far the past 200000 years and human evolution took out in 546 BC. We humans crossed many evolution comparing to other species in this planet. we humans are struggled and developed our self from our stage and already proved our success. 

This evolution are triggered by the desire of each and every spices of their own, One of the great author Napoleon hill told " The starting point of all achievement is desire". BIBLE says (Proverbs 13:19) "The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul" . Your Success is measured by the strength of your desire and the size of your dream, every human in this planet have his own rights to have a desire for what he want, his requirement may be a fundamental need or it may be a secondary need, but he has the right to attain his desire. 


Most of the religions in this world command us to ASK and you will get it. This desire is an emotional element which starts from their own ego, There is a strong bonding relationship between one's desire and his ego.

Most of the achievers and spiritual leaders in the world has commented on the word "EGO", Dalai lama once told "Ego is the number one enemy of compassion.” If you search in the dictionary the basic definition says "the part of the mind that mediates between the conscious and the unconscious and is responsible for reality testing and a sense of personal identity." Which is very difficult to understand. Simply ego is defined as the view that a person has of himself, One looks him in the way as he is. The simple definition of ego is the person view that a person has of himself. It is the way that you look at yourself.

 An example of ego is thinking you are the healthiest person on this planet. This ego within each of us, wont allow us to see the situations as it is, it forms as layer over our sight and show the understandings differently or lead us to take different not required decisions and conclusions.

A Young Couple Moves Into A New Neighborhood. The Next Morning, While They Are Eating Breakfast, The Young Woman Sees Her Neighbor Hang The Wash Outside.
That Laundry Is Not Very Clean, She Said, She Doesn't Know How To Wash Correctly. Perhaps She Needs Better Laundry Soap.


Her Husband Looked On, But Remained Silent. Every Time Her Neighbor Would Hang Her Wash To Dry, The Young Woman Would Make The Same Comments.
About One Month Later, The Woman Was Surprised To See A Nice Clean Wash On The Line And Said To Her Husband: "Look! She Has Learned How To Wash Correctly. I Wonder Who Taught Her This."
The Husband Said: "I Got Up Early This Morning And Cleaned Our Windows!"


Everyman in this universe has his own ego, on which he stands upon, a king has his ego on which, he is a king and a street beggar has his ego as a smartest beggar or as a worst beggar. Leaders call this ego as a serpent a snake. Thus this ego wont allow us to see the situations as it is and leads us to improperor conclusions. There is a nice story which explains how can his ego kills himself,

There Was Once A Learned Scientist..
After A Lot Of Practice And Efforts, He Developed A Formula And Learned The Art Of Reproducing Himself. He Did It So Perfectly That It Was Impossible To Tell The Reproduction From The Original.

One Day While Doing His Research, He Realized That The Angel Of Death Was Searching For Him. In Order To Remain Immortal He Reproduced A Dozen Copies Of Himself. The Reproduction Was So Meticulous That All Of Them Looked Exactly Like Him. Now When This Angel Of Death Came Down, He Was At A Loss To Know Which Of The Thirteen Before Him Was The Original Scientist, And Confused, He Left Them All Alone And Returned Back To Heaven.


But, Not For Long, For Being An Expert In Human Nature, The Angel Came Up With A Clever Idea. He Said To The Scientist Addressing All Thirteen Of Them, "Sir, You Must Be A Genius To Have Succeeded In Making Such Perfect Reproduction Formula Of Yourself. However, I Have Discovered A Flaw In Your Work, Just One Tiny Little Flaw."
The Scientist Immediately Jumped Out And Shouted, Impossible! Where Is The Flaw?" "Right Here" Said The Angel, As He Picked Up The Scientist From Among The Reproductions And Carried Him Off.


Like this the story goes on, since he couldn’t control his pride he lost his life.
The purpose of this two small stories is to inform you about the ego and its play. The learning here is to understand the play of ego and its result on the situation. So the best thing what we have to follow initially to learn or perform a new task is to be egoless. It will be somewhat difficult to be egoless at first but we have to practice it and be egoless. Nouman ali khan told "if someone corrects you, and you feel offended, then you have a ego problem.



And now, how to be ego less ?
