A friend asked why I don’t write more often.

I told her it’s my minimalism, not wanting to put anything into the world unless necessary.And because of the size of my mailing list, I don’t want to bother people unless it’s really important.

She said, “Or maybe it’s ego.”

Ouch.She was right.Very right.

I re-read my notes on the book “Ego is the Enemy”.

“Ego is the unhealthy belief in our own importance.”

Yep.Confirmed.

I feared releasing something unimportant, so I didn’t release anything at all.

If you would have asked me if I think I’m so important, I would have said no.But actions, not words, reveal our real values.

So, sorry that I’ve been so silent.I let my ego make excuses, then believed them.

Read the book “Ego is the Enemy” if this sounds like you, too.
