Why does blaming my ego not help me change my ugly behaviour?
Stop blaming ego; own it
Calling ugly behaviour "my ego" is a way of passing the buck, like saying "that's my genes" or "that's my stars." Just say "I'm ugly right now." If you see that, you will want to do something about it.
Don't say it's my ego. It's a way of escaping. If you see that you are ugly, you will want to do something about it.
