Why ignore that part of you that strives for greatness and not just embrace it?
Jason Roberts
If you’re American, embrace it, if you’re European, just strive for mediocrity.
Henry Diaz
The C++ Programming Language, by Bjarne Stroustrup
Also any math book
Luke Stewart

Both are true. You don't want to get rid of it. You want to use it. Read King Warrior Magician Lover like this user said.
Carson Ward
It's complete BS. Show me one real result before you stroke your ego.
Adam Gray
This book might take your aspirations down a few notches. I am not saying that they are impossible goals, but this book does a very good job of taking away one's ego, I think. What makes you much different from the main character in the book, for example?
Nathaniel Jackson
write your thoughts and theories and share with us, or at least the rest of the world. watch you getting BTFO to oblivion and realizing you're actually a retard. i doubt you do this, but take any subject you feel you have a great insight into and post your thoughts about them on this very thread
Kayden Rodriguez
anything but a self help or children's book
this
do anything that's hard
Because simply having delusions of grandeur is in no way identical to actually striving for said greatness. It's detrimental if anything.

no just look at the mirror
Jaxson Russell
why? can't europeans change the world?
Ethan Diaz
Best answer ITT, everyone feels like a genius when left alone to their throughts.

Not OP, but I studied maths for 10 years, I failed in almost every possible way and I still have a huge ego. Is there any cure?
John Kelly
Joshua Garcia
No, because then you will do the opposite of what is expected for you and inadvertently change the world. It is ironic that the Europeans who did not want to change the world did and those that did want to apparently did not. Whereas it is the inverse in America, I say this as a Russian as well.
Caleb Miller
Failed in what way? You studied for 10 years, so you do have a degree right?
Austin Wilson
Study metaphysics until you develop depersonalization and dissolve your sense of self.
Noah Thomas
Meditation, as cringey as it sounds, helps a lot as well.
Nathaniel White
Meditation is not really cringey but it gives me panic attacks. And yes I would say it's because of depersonalization.
Asher Turner
Because they border on delusions of grandeur with nothing to support them. I don't put in the work...
I'm American...I guess problem solved
I hear what you're saying. One of the reasons I wish to rid myself of these thoughts it is that I half-believe "One day in the future I'll have the fortitude to write something great"...instead of thinking or doing in the now. I've recognized it as a highly destructive way to live. I'm pretty sure this also borders into the narcissistic territory. And then there is the awful voice in my head that says "what if it's true". I also think this is a coping method for not having any friends...I just don't know how to stop it.
Bentley Sullivan
Also, to add to what I just said, does anyone else have these feelings?
Jonathan Hernandez
all the time, couple of my friends have noticed and called me out on it too. idk how to fix it I'm ok with being broken atm
Mason Perez
It's funny because it gets in the way of actual work
