有个自负是好还是坏?

“这些都不是那么好。我想我可以做得更好。”

这是我开始写作的原因之一。因为我在阅读其他文章的时候,脑海里会跳出这种想法。

我甚至对书籍也有过这种想法。是对那些著名的书籍,那些杰出的书籍。

我是谁,竟敢这么想?

那是我的自负。

我感谢它。

因为如果没有它,我永远也不会开始写作。如果没有它,我永远也不会找到我喜欢做的事情。如果没有它,我永远也不会放弃我那朝九晚五的工作。

但是……

有时候我太过沉迷于其中了。

我会让他人的成就进入我的内心,从而使得我很难受。我会嫉妒。我会不满。

我会让我自己被骗去认为自己还不够好,或者是做得还不够多,做得还不够好。

这通常是在我的自负不起作用时所发生的。

我并不认为有个自负是好,或者是坏。

我认为自负是既好又坏。

'Is Having an Ego Good or Bad?

By Matt Hearnden

These arent even that good. I think I could do better.

Thats one of the reasons I started writing. Because I was reading other articles and that thought came to mind.

Ive even thought that about books. Famous books. Brilliant books.

Who the fuck am I to think that?

Thats my ego.

And Im grateful for it.

Because I never wouldve started writing without it. I never wouldve found something I love to do without it. I never wouldve been able to quit my 9-5 without it.

But.

Sometimes I get too caught up in it.

Ill let other peoples accomplishments get inside me and make me feel bad. I become jealous. I become resentful.

I let myself be tricked into think Im not good enough, or doing enough, or being enough.

Thats when my ego becomes unhelpful.

I dont think having an ego is good or bad.

I think it’s good and bad.
