If Your Ego Is Panicking, That’s A Sign You’re on The Right Path
The ego always panics right before a breakthrough
Have you ever felt like you’re caught in a tug-of-war between the person you are and the person you aspire to be? I certainly have.
That’s because, with each stride towards growth and change, we’re essentially challenging the existing narrative of who we are and what we’re capable of achieving. We’re redefining our lives, daring to defy the boundaries of what we once thought possible.
The ego, however, doesn’t like this change. It wants us to cling to familiarity, resist stepping out of our comfort zones, and maintain the status quo, even if it means sacrificing our potential.
So, it’s no wonder the ego starts panicking when we reconnect with our authentic needs and desires. It knows that as we peel back the layers of conditioning and societal expectations, we begin to glimpse our true essence — the core of who we are beneath the need for external acceptance. And with each revelation, its false sense of self slowly fades away.
When this happens, the ego reacts with panic, desperately clinging to its dwindling influence.
At this point, we have a choice to make. Are we going to revert to our old ways to make the ego comfortable…
