Ego is probably one of the weakest materials that anything could ever be built with. It's construction is subject to the slightest gusts of wind, and when it gets wet, it tends to clam up like a shellfish. It rejects adhesives that could improve its foundation, because it feels as if it is already strong enough. When someone tries to improve upon its frame, it would rather be torn down than to have any help. People don't even like to be around it because it lets off an ungodly stench.
So why is ego such a popular building material? Its cheap, and its readily available. Although its a rather ugly component, because of its wide availability, one could even argue that ego is a sustainable solution. I tend to disagree, since its more corrosive and harmful than anything.
So what should you use for your solution? Try something like intuition, which, while somewhat subjective, has a basis in reason, since its source is from within us. We can't normally explain it, but we usually feel pretty strongly about it. Ego, on the other hand, is derived out of the need to justify a belief, a belief which is usually the wrong one to have in the first place.
Don't stick to a false belief, seek out the best solution.
