1. The one question we discuss is “How does ego influence your identity?”

2. The two references we look at are:

(iii) The three actions to take are:

· Ask yourself a powerful introspective question – if my identity was changeable, how would I change it to have a more empowered life

· Quieten your ego

· Think of yourself as a human becoming, not a human being
