Ego, What is Ego? Options

As a person, I have a big ego. I want to win at all costs. I want this and that. I simply want to have it my way. I want the cake and the icing too. I am spoiled and always want to take more than I give back. Is this an example of an Ego?

My ego boost me to gain riches, health, love and many other conquests.
My ego also make new enemies, destroy and corrupt various aspects of me and my environment consciously and subconsciously.

What is EGO? What does this word means?
How do you define it? How do you keep it your slave instead of it enslaving you?

What you describe as ego in the above is in a part willpower. You have a strong will, and when you will something you will do anything to get it. you will not stop because any of your own weaknesses(inertia, laziness, greed, fear, anger) hold you back.

Wanting to win is not what is commonly associated with the ego.

What most people describe as ego can be compared to the Freudian id, you can easily google that, i suggest you research that, the Freudian trinity.

There are many things called ego. Its confusing...

Killing the ego is not wise, it is necessary for a well rounded personality. but you should not be a slave to it.

In the end it does not matter what you call it, and how you rationalize your own Psyche. It is all bullshit.

no amount of reasoning or thinking will subdue your ego or kill it. no matter how far you comprehend your own mind...
Only by living and not being a slave of your own impulses can you be freed. You live your life on second at a time, its all about choices and going against the choices that are easiest but worst in the long run.

Be free, invent yourself and strengthen your willpower.
