Your Ego Is Designed To Sabotage You
“I can’t hold on anymore. The rope is slipping and I have to let go.”
This is what I wrote down in my journal this morning as I was helping my mindsets see why I was feeling this way.
It started like this;
Dear Danielle,
Why are you holding onto this old version of you so much? What aspect of this self is so much more comfortable than the new?
As I started to answer these questions I had my a-ha moment.
I have been giving so much life to ‘holding’ onto this old aspect of self, that I have created this last tight grip on letting it go.
Why?
Because it felt more comfortable? But to who?
Me or my ego?
It is my ego of course. My ego is the thing holding on for dear life.
“I can’t hold on anymore. The rope is slipping and I have to let go.”
It is not me. It is not my higher self. It is my ego.
And the only reason I am in this place is because I have done so much work to build a new rope to swing from that my ego is fighting to stay in control and on this old rope.
