Over the years, I have written several several takes, applications, thoughts, and republished dialogues on ego and self-esteem.
In terms of personal development--irrespective of your motivations; no matter if the flashpoint is your inter-personal relationships or professional life--there is no single factor that is more important to the core of your happiness, your ease and flow, and your general thrival and expansion than your egoic development. From ego-centric to gender-centric or ethno-centric to world-centric to cosmo-centric.
Blah, blah, blah. Heh.
Below is a round-up of those articles to date.

Yes, it will enable you to handle the crap life throws at you. Deal with the less visionary of the world.

That you will learn, grow, develop, and thrive. Eventually.
And remember, while the distinctions are important, an ounce of integration is worth a pound of insight or knowledge. Build the muscle. Practice. Notice. Witness.
Okee-dokee. Enough of me waxing poetic. Here they are. From the divine to the practical. From the theoretical to the hard driving and direct. Have fun.
