What is the ego? The ego is a self-generated identity consisting of every belief we believe about who and what we are. This includes our personality, our talents and our likes and dislikes.
什么是自我？自我，是一种我们自己创造的身份，它由我们的信念组成，这些信念与我们对自己的认知有关。这包括了我们的人格，我们的天赋，我们的喜好。
The ego is what keeps us locked away in our minds in an endless cycle of chatter, separated from the present moment. It is the identity created and reinforced by the story we tell ourselves.
自我，把我们紧禁锢在自己的思想里，它让我们不断地评判自己，让我们远离当下的生活。自我，就是一种我们不断地向自己强调的身份。
Our stories are, however, just that. Stories. They do not make up who we are. Eckhart Tolle says, "the most common ego identifications have to do with possessions, the work you do, social status and recognition, knowledge and education, physical appearance, special abilities, relationships, personal and family history, belief systems, and often nationalistic, racial, religious, and other collective identifications. None of these are you."
而那些我们不断告诉自己的事情，就仅仅是一些事情而已，没什么大不了的。它们并不是我们的一部分。Eckhart Tolle说过，最常见的自我，跟人们拥有的东西有关，比如你的工作，社会地位，获得的认可，知识和教育背景，外貌，特殊的能力，人际关系，个人故事，家庭故事，信念体系，以及常见的民族主义，种族主义，宗教，以及其他的集体概念。

By observing without expectation, you then see things as they are.
