But if we’re constantly having tension with another person in our life, just as I addressed yesterday, we need to set aside our ego and approach differently. It doesn’t matter if you’re younger, they’re older, you’re their boss or they’re your grandmother – ego affects us all equally. Until we become self-aware of the ego taking over in our lives, we won’t be able to defeat it. Today’s Daily Affirmation is:
