Ego and Quest for Identity (#11)
The quest for identity.
People wander there life when they're young, trying to find who they are by doing any means nessecary and anything in front of other peers trying to find what they like most and what others agree with them the most.
Obviously, its in the subconcsious. your not constantly thinking who do i want to be?
But the scarey part about identity is once you find an identity you like. You tend to stick with it at least for a while, then defend your ideas and thoughts about your identity.
In the case of Ego it relates to ego, i hate to say it, but us guys, generally tend to have low egos of ourselfs.
I know a lot of people who will always defend their ideas.
This is where all of you (as in the majority of people) end up saying you hate talking to people who dont know what the hell their even talking about, but act like they do.
Back to the guys having low egos, we tend to always think we are RIGHT, ALWAYS. We dont have the balls to admit were wrong sometimes.
I try to admit im wrong sometimes, but i hate it when i do admit im wrong, people then rub it in that im wrong. Thats, basically the only reason which holds me back from wanting to admit im wrong, because other people like to make you seem lower of yourself when your wrong.
If i ever catch you in person doing that to me. Well I wont heistate to swing at you.
I dont know all of the reasons why guys tend to not want to admit being wrong, i know mine but thats about it.
Now women have this problem on finding out who they are, the quest for identity.
It seems so hard for them to figure out who they want to be when their young. I mean you see girls (in high school) falling to peer pressure and critisizm (im not sure if i spelled that right), too much that it ends up effecting them at both the conscious and subconscious levels of their minds.
And can do serious damage: Sexual abuse, use of girls as tools, manipulation, anorexia.
Sseveral other problems, involving the mind, and some girls dont learn till their older, generally they learn the hard way, from some asshole guy who used them, abused them, manipluated them or something. I can name a few girls i know that have benifited from learning the hard way, yet it also has hurt them.
Ego and identity seem to be related and can definitly affect us, so my post is merely about saying what this is, and now for me to say what to do..
Find out what type of person are you, and find out how your ego is.
Learn its weaknesses and strengths. Strengthen the weaknesses.
As the saying goes, the best defense is to have nothing to defend at all.
As for identity, why do you think people change? Because they find another way of living that they like.
so..
