OverviewOur ego represents our desires and wants them to be perceived, recognized and fulfilled. With its constant tendency to exaggerate, however, it often achieves the opposite. It makes us collide with the views, expectations and sensitivities of other, mostly equally immoderate egos and challenges their resistance and rejection. Politics, religion, morals, climate change, LGBTQ+ ... We are constantly expected to think, act and be as others think is only right. And although we all suffer from this in one way or another, we don't do any better ourselves. We react to even the smallest deviations from our convictions with indignation and rejection. However, this doesn't make the world a better place, but merely moves us further and further away from a compatible coexistence into an increasingly irritated antagonism in which anger and hatred become ever louder. The fact that egos simply allow themselves to be provoked, or feel constantly challenged by everyone and everything, is the minefield on which we encounter each other every day. We have no idea where each other's dislikes, fears, sensitivities, hurts and so on are, how deep any prejudices and resentments lie. Only one thing is certain: The detonators are so sensitive in all of us that even the slightest misstep can lead to an explosion. Without wishing to exhort or set the reader on any kind of course, the author creates an awareness of when it is worth putting our own supposed betterment in the foreground or when we can make progress by taking back our constantly and excessively demanding and judgmental egos. The social climate is just like the atmospheric climate: We all play our part in making it worse. And even a slightly more tolerable we would be a much more relaxed me for each and every one of us. War of Egos shows you how to avoid unnecessary conflicts at work, in society, and in partnerships, and how to reduce ego-related disappointments - how to get along better with others and achieve more satisfaction in all areas of life.
