Listen "Episode 223 - Taking Accountability, Pt 2: Tell the Truth and the Ego"
Episode Synopsis
Join me in this second part of the podcast on accountability. I wanted to take some time to discuss lying, the ego, and how, according to Jordan Peterson, lying distorts reality and weakens personal integrity. Also, very often, we lie to protect ourselves, which ties directly to the topic of accountability and the ego. Ego protection is a psychological defense mechanism that people use to maintain a positive self-image and protect their self-esteem from perceived threats. This instinct can significantly interfere with our ability to take accountability for our actions, especially when those actions have negative consequences or reflect poorly on us.
