On Oct 10, 2011, Oprah and Eckhart Tolle posted the Webcast - The False Power of Ego. 

Personally, I absolutely love Oprah's Life-classes and Eckard Tolle's lessons about the ego. Rita, an audience member, HUGELY inspired me. I hope these quotes from the show inspire you as well. 

Eckhart Tolle asserted:

• "We should strive to not be defined by what other people say."
  
• "Ego involves: using people for our own purposes, feeling threatened by other people or feeling envy when someone else gets something good."
  

Audience Member, Rita said:

• "I don't any longer think it is possible, that other people can hurt me, they are just giving me their observation and I am giving it meaning, so I get to choose what that meaning is."  
• "I am addicted to approval and appreciation!" OK, now who isn't?
• "If I think I need it, it is ego, because I already have everything I need." 
• "When I receive criticism I respond with, 'you could be right' - I know it is their story of me, not mine."
• "Love has conditions, 'I love you' equals 'I'll trade you' - is this a business contract?"
• "I am happier if I love you - you don't have to love me - you don't even have to participate!"

Great life lessons to live by… somehow it makes life easier and more enjoyable.
