The biggest threat is over-compensating for that belief and not remembering that you're also supposed to act in service to others. The ego gets too large, in that case. As always, and with everything, a balance must be achieved. I just didn't personally have a strong enough ego to let me properly thrive in the world.
I have always been wary of an ego-centric approach. But I see the point you are making here. Belief is everything.
Question - what are the threats to an ego-centric approach? And why did you drift away from it?
