The question of ego

Its a question I have decided to ask of late. Do I have to big an ego?

well, my answer is yes. I have far too high an opinion of myself. I have very strong opinions about a lot of things, and I am very very reluctant to conceed on them.
I don't mind an argument, if its personal I hate it with a passion, but if its topical or intellectual, then I don't mind to argue amd argue with passion about something I do care about. And I think a combination of the two are quite bad.

I've been fighting with this for a while... I'm losing, or rather - I'm not winning as many battles with my ego as I would like (hmm... thats egostical). How do other people deal with the problem of ego?

false humility and self-detriment. I have a very convoluted personality below the surface.

mmm... I find my ego coming to the surface more than I want it to. At least with false humilty its controlled... I'm finding my unbridled ego is getting in the way of me giving service at times.

I'm finding it to be a huge issue, and while not everyone sees it, in fact very few see it, I see it driving my motives at times - and thats hugely bad.
