Lightbulb Ego growth with financial growth?

Hello there!

How do you define EGO?

Under my definition of Ego (Fear/Insecurity/What you do/What you have/What you "are"-in physical terms- based identity) you would run into trouble if YOU start identifying with your financial abundance or "high position"... that is, part of your identity becomes the wealthy-powerful-person...and of course your EGO will fight (with fear, and violence) anything that threatens your externally based identity...

So a solution would be to "separate" your identity from the external positions of wealth and power (or anything else really)...
You are not that, you are something else (IMO: lifespark, consciousness, spirit, soul...what you prefer...) something that cannot be threatened by anyone or anything ever...and is everlasting...
If you understand it, you'll empower yourself.

Hope I've been any help...
