A Work-in-Progress
Your ego's primary job is to keep you safe from life's disappointments.
On clear and sunny days it reminds you that thunderstorms are predicted.
When starting something new, it reasons why you likely won’t succeed.
To protect you from the letdown of defeat, it keeps your expectations low.
However, the ego can stifle your success by keeping you from dreaming big.
If you hope to silence your negating self, be like the artist who envisions
his self-portrait as a completed masterpiece before he stretches the canvas.
By seeing yourself as a work-in-progress, your ego has nothing left to say.
