Does Your Inner Goddess or Your Ego Guide You?

It’s not always easy to tell if our choices are coming from the right place. However, if you follow your Inner Goddess, your life is likely to be enjoyable and meaningful. Follow your ego, and you might be successful in many ways, but you’re likely to find yourself wondering why you’re not as happy as you think you should be.

Learning to determine whether your Inner Goddess or ego is guiding you can make a huge difference in your life. While there are no hard and fast rules to make the distinction, there are tendencies that can serve as a guide.

Consider these differences:

1. Ego-based decisions are grounded in fear and self-preservation.

If you decide to go to medical school primarily for reasons of financial security, that’s ego. If you choose not to ask out the gorgeous individual that lives on the corner, that’s ego.

2. Ego-based decisions typically have emotions connected to them.

A choice made by your Inner Goddess feels “right” and often comes out of left-field. You might be driving to the bank and get hit with the idea of becoming a dog breeder. The resulting battle in your head is your ego fighting back.

3. Ego-based decisions consider external results.

Are you writing a book to have a bestseller, or are you writing a book because you’re fascinated with the idea of writing a book? Are you taking action to gain specific results, or does the act itself provide sufficient satisfaction?

4. Ego-based decisions involve rationalization.

Your ego is fantastic at convincing you that its choice is the right one. “I’ll never get that job. Imagine how disappointed I’ll feel when it doesn’t work out. People like me are destined only to be supervisors, but there’s nothing wrong with that. I can still have a decent life.”

Your ego keeps you limited. It’s really just a rationalization based on fear – fear of success or fear of failure.

The ego tries to justify itself with facts, figures, and logic. Your Inner Goddess doesn’t require these tricks to compel you, though. If you’re using logic to convince yourself of a course of action, you can bet that’s your ego squawking.

5. Your Inner Goddess does not judge.

A thought or decision arising from your Inner Goddess doesn’t involve judgment statements about right or wrong, good or bad. Your Inner Goddess thoughts feel calm, relaxed, and peaceful. There’s a universal truth to an idea that arises from your Inner Goddess.

Is the expected gratification coming from within, or is it external?

Would you make the same choice if no one would ever know?

Would you purchase that BMW if no one ever knew you owned it? Or do you simply love German automobiles and love the idea of owning a precision car?

Are you driven by money and admiration or by personal satisfaction?

Final Thoughts

While the ego can be very limiting, that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s wrong. Remember that the ego’s motivation is primarily based on self-preservation. Your ego believes that it has your best interests at heart. Ignoring the ego can be challenging. It uses fear to influence you. It’s only natural to avoid fear and seek comfort.

The trick is to realize when fear is holding you back from something bigger and better. Sometimes fear is keeping you from doing something foolish. Think before choosing which voice to follow and use these tips to help you decide what will bring you true happiness.
