The Top Ten Lies We Tell Ourselves: And How to Stop Living Them

The ego - the fear-soaked part of our minds - is happiest when we listen and do everything it asks, even when it doesn’t make sense. Spiritual growth actually depends on listening to the ego, but only so we can learn not to do what it suggests. The ten ego lies documented in this book range from the idea that there is only one person who will complete us to the need to win by holding on to grudges the longest. Using humor and a solid base of academic and practical knowledge, Dr. Marrocco helps readers gently undo the lies we all tell ourselves.
