EGO vs EGO:

Ego” is defined as character or opinion of yourself. But the word “Egoist” is described as negative.

Ego of oneself is the reason for one’s success or failure. My ego gained me lots of successes at definite levels. It is the cause for my failures too. The good thing in either of them is acquiring useful knowledge and experience.

Boosting ego is necessary at times to reap your rewards. When the ego is alive we will possess a win-all attitude which is of course a mandatory. The “Win-Win“ mind-set is explained in many motivation books that indirectly puts in picture how to boost one’s ego.

Ego heightening draws to Egoist state of mind. The society condemns egoist approach so the guilty of owning it should go through all the accusations and criticization. Once the ego is vanished the motivation drops down. Ego is directly proportional to impulse or inspiration. Without stimulation one cannot compete or simply can do nothing.


The best way is to let clash the inner ego & outer ego. Inner ego is possessed from within the heart ; what it really wants. The outer one is alive for others to impress, stir around, astonish or strike for sake of doing it. The driving force should come from the result of ego vs ego which will be very stable and exists as long as the need is around or absent.

The Pleasure of pain: Unlimited

The Pleasure of pain: Unlimited
Whenever you do some amount of physical exercise, when you demand the maximum from your body, the mind gains a strange spiritual strength. Understanding the beauty of pain is also a vital part of life. The fear of pain disappears when we cross beyond the limits. In this case, it is the physical limits of a man.

The truth is, no one wants to suffer, and yet nearly everyone seeks out pain and sacrifice, and then they feel justified, pure, deserving of the respect of their children, husbands, neighbors, God. Martyr, is the name given to them. I think “sufferer for a cause” exists as long as mankind exists. May be they all want to experience the calmness beyond all? I don’t know how to name it... May be it is a kind of spiritual drug.

After we pass the worst fears in our life we feel no pain at all. The one who is not afraid of pain fears nothing. Romeo wants to take risks and try things far from his limits. He has been through this phase of pain, personally. He has yet to explore and learn more on it.
