E Out of Ego Daily Insight – Getting over Ego
Getting over Ego is of course easier said than done. Our clue for the day is: look for what is similar in two apparently opposing “You should have…” and “Well, you could have…”. Once you find what is similar, the differences don’t look so huge, and the egos so much to “gain.” For example: Interruptions. What is similar: getting a job done. Try using the preference technique: “I would prefer that you would bring in all my messages for each hour at one time, please.” “Ok, now I understand how to be effective, thank you.”
