 PRAISE BE TO ALLAH

The good you do today,

they often will forget tomorrow;

do good anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, 

they may be jealous and scorn; 

be joyous anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, 

they may be jealous and scorn; 

be joyous anyway.

What you spend years building,

they may destroy overnight;

build anyway.

If you are honest and frank,

they may cheat you;

be forthright anyway

Sadly, the ego is like a hearty weed. Just when you think you have it licked, it sprouts right back up again. We must remember that God is the only one who really can do anything—including killing our ego. However, it is us who must make the initial decision to improve ourselves.

Every time we take ourselves to task for not being as eager to work righteousness, for not being straightforward, for backsliding, for falling into gossip or vain talk, we are killing our ego.

Every time we make a mistake, then repent and try to make amends, we are killing our ego.

Even if it was not correct, you have used it constructively.For example, advice has been given to us to use criticism from someone else to kill the ego

God gives us many means of working at this.

How do we go about killing our egos?

Have you seen the one whose god is his own ego? Will you be his advocate? (25:43)

..God does not change the condition of any people unless they themselves make the decision to change... (13:11)

GOD sends him astray, despite his knowledge, seals his hearing and his mind, and places a veil on his eyes. Who then can guide him, after such a decision by GOD?
