3 Tricks of the EGO that BLOCK Success, Happiness and Manifestation

This video, I'm going to be sharing with you 3 tricks of the ego that blocks success, happiness, and the law of attraction from working. I'm going to show you exactly how to push through these so that you start to live in a completely new way. Welcome back to another video. My name is Aaron and I help people expand their consciousness. Now in this video, I'm going to be sharing with you The 3 tricks of the ego. The ego may have a couple more tricks, but these are the 3 main tricks that I have acknowledged in the ego that really block success, happiness, and manifestations from coming into your life, from being able to perceive of that which you want. Now let's first off understand the ego in the process of manifestation itself. Now the job of the ego is to focus. And is to identify and have a level of awareness with where it is to quote unquote where it wants to be. The ego tends to be more identified with goals. The ego tends to be identified with outcomes, and it's about being aware that first off, you are not just the ego. The ego may be part of your human experience, Because when we come into this reality, we need a vessel for having an earthly experience and that vessel is our body. And then our body has an ego. It's almost like the ego is the avatar in this reality because at a greater sense, you are an unconditional, immortal spiritual being, unconditional love, immortal spiritual being from the higher dimensional aspects of consciousness that have projected yourself here into this reality. And while being here, you use your body and your ego as the avatar. Now the thing is, is people in their life many times become overly identified with that avatar or that ego. It's almost like you're playing a video game and you start to think that you are only just the character itself without realizing that you are also the person that is playing the game. Now of course, this is the idea of our higher self. Our higher self is us and there is this balance between the higher self and the ego. The ego's job is to focus. The ego's job is to pay attention to what it wants, what it doesn't want, and the job of the higher self is to guide the ego. Now the thing is, is for the process of happiness manifestation, even the law of attraction, for us to really be in balance, the key to this is having two sides of that coin. So it is having that of having the focus in a certain direction and moving in a certain direction. We could even call this the action and being aware of how we feel along the process. The ego can identify what that is and pay attention to what it wants and all of that. And then the other side of that though is the key is to let go and let things happen the way they are meant to happen. And this means letting go and giving up the outcome of how it happens. To that of the higher self, and then the higher self can help guide through the experience in a much more powerful way. But the thing that happens is many people get caught up in the ego thinking that they are only the ego and they think they must do absolutely everything. Now when we believe we must do everything, we put all of the weight on our back and we carry it around, and by doing so we end up feeling bogged down. We end up feeling at the whims of everyone else. We feel like we are at the effect of everything in life rather than being at the cost. Now, the first trick of the ego that I want to share with you has to do with the ego thinking that it must do everything. The ego thinks it must do everything. That's not the case. The job of the ego and what you can begin to do is become aware of how you are setting your goals. What are your outcomes? And then being aware of how you can move in that direction, but also allow the elasticity for your higher self to help bring through the kind of information to help bring through how things could actually happen. So this is about having that, that balance of understanding what the job of the ego really is. The job of the ego is to focus. It is to go in a certain direction. And you can think of this as well as the guidance system for that of your ego is that of the feeling of passion. You can use your emotions when you are doing what you're passionate about. That feeling of passion is your body telling you, hey, this is who you really are. Continue to do this thing. And that is the connection to your higher self that is guiding you through the process. But what'll happen sometimes is the ego will also go for goals. That it doesn't really want. The ego might think it wants it, but the higher self always knows better. So it's about being aware of that and having your goal connected to your passion. Go from your heart. How do you feel? That is what is important because the emotion transcends the intellect. The ego is more concerned with the logical understanding of everything, trying to piece it together in their mind. And when you go beyond that of just the ego, you go into your heart, you then see that amazing things begin to start. So go into your heart and understand that when you set the intention also to do your passion more of the time, you will then start to see more and more of a reflection of that in your life because the truth is is the more you do what you're passionate about, the more the side effects come anyways. What I mean by that is you may say, well, I want money, I want a relationship, I want this, I want that, but what you really want is you want this connection, you want this feeling, you want the emotion those things will bring you. If you go for your passion, you are then going for the highest probable timeline of you then also having all those other things. If you start following your passion, you're going to meet someone that's also doing what they love and that you're in more vibrational resonance with. If you are doing your passion, there's more likelihood that you're going to be able to add value to other people because you're in a high vibrational state, and then that money and that financial abundance just comes back to you. In the same way, you may find that when it comes to health, you're in a high vibrational state, you have more vitality, you feel like you want to go out and you want to do more physical exercise. Therefore, you become even more healthy. So be aware of these different facets. Because when you're aware of how you feel in the process, amazing things happen, but it doesn't have to be purely a mental, logical type thing. You can make it an emotional thing and you can tap into your passion, but the moment you think that the ego has to do everything is the moment that you're going to put too much on your back and you're going to start to feel resistance. When that happens, observe the ego. Bring awareness into your body. Even right now as I do this, we can do this exercise right now. Bring the awareness from in your head and into your sense perceptions, into your hands, your chest, your feet. Imagine that there's energy going out of the heels in your feet. As you do this right now, you probably feel more present to the moment. And then you can observe the thoughts that you have. And as you observe the thoughts that you have, you can see and choose whether you identify with them or you continue to observe them. Because as you observe them, you neutralize the power that it has over you. So instead of, I have to control this, I have to do this, this, this, this, this, you start to observe it and see that a lot of times it's just the worrying of the mind. Now, the second trick of the ego has to do with the self-preservation system of the ego. The ego wants to survive. The ego wants to remain the same. When you bring a different variable into your life and the ego sees that, the ego will try to sabotage it. The ego will try to make it so that that doesn't happen because it does not want to go off-rail of what it had envisioned in its own mind. This is something I've experienced recently because as I bring a new element into my life, I feel this, this inner resistance and it has nothing to do with the element. It has to do with my beliefs about who I am and how I saw myself and my blueprint of how I was going to live my life. And that's allowing me to bring these things up and then to process it and let it go. You see, that's what is powerful when you understand that it's a self-preservation system. The ego just wants to survive. The ego wants to remain the same. So instead, become aware of the ego. Become aware of the self-preservation system. Ask yourself this question anytime you feel like you have these limiting beliefs: what would I have to believe is true to be having this kind of emotion? Because a lot of times the feelings we have come from some— comes from something we believe to be true. It comes from some type of meaning, but sometimes those meanings may be kind of buried in with the ego. So I was feeling this resistance when I was bringing this other element in, and as I do, I feel this resistance. I'm like, why am I feeling this? And I asked myself the question, well, what would I have to believe is true to be feeling this? And I got down to believing that it would derail a certain level of financial abundance or this or that, all of this stuff. And I realized that it's false. It's not even true. It's just the ego is trying to preserve itself. So then that happens. Once again, you can observe it and you can move more into your heart, move it to your heart and understand it for what it is. It's just doing its job. There's no, you know, sometimes they say these things, they have the book, you know, the book called Ego Is the Enemy. The ego is still something you are using to have a physical type experience. So instead of fighting the ego, be like, screw you for having these limiting beliefs. Understand, yes, maybe the ego will try to self-preserve itself, but instead what you can do is you can look at the ego and you could say, listen, it's going to be okay. It's going to be okay. Yes, maybe this is a little bit different, but it's going to be okay. Yes, you can still do this and this. It's not going to be as rigid as you think. It's okay. Just trust this process. And the next time that belief comes up, that feeling comes up, observe it. Observe the feeling. Emotions dissipate when you observe them with detachment because then you see them for what they are. They're only painful when we identify with them and we think that they are who we are and we think they shouldn't be there. Allow those emotions to be there. As you do that, they will then begin to go away more and more. So this is about— this really, everything I'm sharing with you right now is about the same kind of process. Awareness. Become aware of what your ego is thinking, then choose to detach from it. That is what will really help you to go beyond that of the ego structure, because remember, you also have a self-image and a certain way you see yourself, and that self-image is what is called a cybernetic mechanism, meaning it'll always go back to its base point. So if you see yourself as only able to make $50,000 per year, only able, capable of having a certain type of relationship, all of these things, the self-image and the ego will start to get a little bit freaky because it's like, what are you doing? This is out of alignment with the way that you saw yourself forever. Instead, you observe that, you become aware of it, and then you process the emotions and you let them go, and then you will move beyond it and you start to transcend it, and then you start to exist in a higher state of consciousness. You start to exist in a higher vibrational state. Now, the third trick of the ego is the ego's rules that it has for what it takes you to be happy. Many times the ego will tell you that you can feel happy when some external benchmark, and because of that external benchmark, you will always be looking for it. And think about how funny that is. We say when we get this specific type of financial abundance, when I have this certain career, when I have this, when I have that. Then I'll be happy. If then is a rule in the mind and we can give ourselves permission to feel that right now because all we experience in our life is more of our own energy. We may use certain people as a symbol for that and they can feel the same emotion. There can be a love, there can be a connection there, there can be a passion for what you do for a living. However, it's about understanding that there's this alignment that takes place when you more so soak into the moment now, when you give yourself permission to be happy now. And as you give yourself to be happy now permission, you begin to increase your vibration and then you experience a reality that is equal to that high vibrational state. So it's about the awareness of what rules are in your mind. What rules are in your mind right now that says that you can be happy when, when can you be happy? Why not now? Why not be happy now and understand that by being happy now, you will actually attract the things in your life quicker than you can imagine? Isn't that a funny paradox? We say, when I get the car, the relationship, the money, then I'll be happy. But the key is, is when you'll be happy, when you are happy, those things will come anyways. So it's about understanding the trick of the ego of the if, then scenario and instead choosing to be happy now because remember we experience in life that which we are the vibration of. So the more that you allow yourself to be in that vibration of what you love doing, of giving yourself permission to be happy now, the more that you do all of these things, the more that you embody that vibrational frequency and the more that you then start to perceive of the reality that is equal to that vibration. Your vibration is a combination of what you think, act, and feel. So give yourself permission now, even right now as you watch this. Can you give yourself permission now to be happy? A lot of times that can come from focus as well. What are you focused on? Are you focused on the gratitude you have for what's in your life right now? You could be. I mean, so I don't have a lot in my life. Well, you probably are watching this on a mobile phone or a computer. Maybe you're listening to this while you drive in your car, which gets you from point A to point B. Maybe you're watching this with your, uh, with a family member or a friend. You have things to be grateful for, and the more that you pay attention to what you are grateful for, the more you will then start to be in that higher vibrational state and you will start to experience a reality that is equal to that vibration. So the 3 tricks of the ego and how to transcend every single one of them is about first off understanding you don't have to control everything. Give it up, let go. Understand that you can just follow your passion, that when you're in your— when you're in a high vibrational state, you are aligned to who you really are, and that half the equation is focusing. The other half, maybe it's even more than half, is trusting the process and having your higher self bring you what you need, trusting that it will work out. If you do that, then things will smooth out so much easier. You will take all that weight off your back and understand that things can be given to you at the same time. Remember that you have a self-preservation system inside of you that's trying to remain the same. When the resistance comes up, be aware of it, observe it, let it go. Notice that you just have to a lot of times dissolve those negative emotions. You have to just dissolve those negative beliefs by being aware of them. And observing them with detachment. They just are what they are. Do that exercise every day. Bring the awareness from out of your head into your hands, into your feet, and notice how you become more aware, present to the moment. And then at the same time, know that for this whole process, the more that you give yourself permission to be happy now, the more you will experience what you want in your life. This is about letting go of all the rules and giving yourself permission to be in the present moment. And as you're in the present moment, you observe the ego and the ego begins to cooperate. That's where the power is. Now, a lot of what the ego will, will cause is a lot of sometimes emotional disturbances.
