“In religion, there's a certain type of fear that if somebody believes differently from me, that it's a threat. Because I'm right, and there cannot be two ways that are right, so if I'm right, anything different than this must be wrong; and we attack those things and it's really due to insecurity, ego and fear.” IfsWayBelieveTwoDifferentCertainTypeEgoThreatDuesInsecurityTwo WaysInsecurity And Fear Author:Radhanath Swami

“A lot of singers don't really know who they are. They have this massive insecurity and this massive ego and they are sort of pulled between both. I mean, why do you want a lot of people to look at you all the time and listen to you? There is something going on there, there is sort of need to express and attention. It's not just ego, it's some sort of complex thing and sometimes you create characters to say something you want to say and then you just throw yourself into that.” PeopleMeanSometimesCharacterAttentionEgoInsecurity Author:Gavin Friday
“Funnily enough, I feel the most free to be myself when I'm not doing my solo project. Whenever I'm in a situation when it's a side thing or it's something not so infused with my ego. When I'm all over everything, it's a big responsibility and half the time leaves me in some weird nether state of insecurity and doubt.” EnoughResponsibilitySituationDoubtEgoInsecurityLeaving Me Author:Ariel Pink
“There is another side [to ego] that can wreck a team or an organization. That is being distracted by your own importance. It can come from your insecurity in working with others. It can be the need to draw attention to yourself in the public arena. It can be a feeling that others are a threat to your own territory. These are all negative manifestations of ego, and if you are not alert to them, you get diverted and your work becomes diffused. Ego in these cases makes people insensitive to how they work with others and it ends up interfering with the real goal of any group efforts.” PeopleIfsNeedsRealEndsFeelingsSidesGoalEffortAttentionCasesGroupsTeamEgoDrawsNegativeOrganizationImportanceThreatManifestationCoachingInsecurityTerritoryInterfereArenaDistractedWrecksInsensitiveWorking With OthersGroup Effort Author:Bill Walsh
