Lower Ego Power and Difficulty Resolving Conflict Aired Wednesday, June 9, 2021 at 8:00 AM PST / 11:00 AM EST This week on It’s Your Ego—Stupid!, Dr. Nick will be looking intensely into the mirror of our ability to resolve the small and large conflicts, arguments, and disagreements that take place in our lives. These conflicts are inevitable because we each possess an individuality that makes us unlike anyone who has ever lived, is living, or will be living. It is this uniqueness in our being, rooted in our having been formed by a unique set of life events, relationships, and experiences, that sets the stage for this inevitable conflict. One of the tasks of life is to reconcile our differences in ways that can lead to growth and learning from conflict rather than the often seen distance and destructiveness that results from conflict. Conflicts that often last far too long, being fueled by the ego energy at work to keep them unresolved. Particularly, those involving our spouse or partner, parents, children, and siblings. Unfortunately, for those with lower ego power, conflicts are opportunities for them to feel further weakened and disempowered. Consequently, they often keep their distance from conflict by failing to speak up or assert themselves when that would be the right thing for them to do. Sometimes, conflicts are necessary and can be a source of leaning and growth for themselves and others. But, they fail to be involved in them. They prefer to play it safe, rather than ruffling feathers, when some feathers need to be ruffled. Their failure to “draw a line” by refusing to engage in necessary conflict makes them excellent candidates to be exploited or manipulated by others. They often treat their needs or can be convinced by others that their needs are less important and secondary to those of others, leading to avoidance of conflict in which they should be standing up for themselves. Roles they may find their way into living, until they awaken to their ego energy, include the Victim, the Dependent, and the Conformist. During the show I’ll be looking at symptoms, reflections of ego stupidity, and the impact on spiritual wellness which occurs when a person is being affected by lower ego power energy in their ability to work through and resolve conflicts. I’ll also be looking at specific ego insights needed to transform lower ego power into a healthier and more balanced place. Please join me Wednesdays at 11:00 am (ET) when I will be sharing what you’ve taught me about what ego’s doing within your life, humanly and spiritually.
