Let me introduce you to Peter Piper, Pete for short. He's my ego and I recently learned about him and the power he had over me, but now I send him to the moon so he can make moon cookies and dance in the darkness under the stars when I don't need him around. 

Your ego wants to keep you playing small, it's the relentless critic inside of you. Once you can tame your ego their are limitless opportunities.

Observe your egoic self, but do not engage with your egoic self.

3 ways to overcome the egoic self : 

1. beginners mindset
2. meditation
3. focus on effort not outcome
