We all heard ego and self-respect both those two words. Many people do not have any clear idea about ego and self-respect. That's why they mix with each other. In This article I want to show the difference between Ego and self respect. First of all self-respect means feeling of respect for yourself that shows that you value yourself which is driven by feelings of self confidence. On the other hand Ego is the lack of self respect which is driven by uncontrolled mind. Self respect teach us to respect everyone don't caring or depending anyone's rank or position. Ego teach us to respect only superior person and neglect inferior person. A self respected man try to move forward with everyone. But the man who has ego move forward alone. He thought he is the best. He thought for himself. There is only self interest of of his own. It may hurts other. For satisfying ego you can do any wrong thing. But self respect stop you from doing anything wrong. Self respected men doesn't fear for losing anything. But the men having ego have many fear of losing. Ego always makes a man to feel jealousy in other prosperity.
There are two kinds of pride, both good and bad. ‘Good pride’ represents our dignity and self-respect. ‘Bad pride’ is the deadly sin of superiority that reeks of conceit and arrogance.”
—John C. Maxwell
In a word self respect is containing huge positive thoughts and ego contains huge negative thoughts of mind. That's why we all need to keep maintaining distance from ego and try to gain self respect.
