Here's a Checklist of Dialogues, we often find ourselves thinking or even speaking out:
1. I was speaking and he cut ME short, as if he had something important to share!
2. Look at his audacity: He’s got the courage to criticize MY opinion.
3. That was what I recommended in the previous meeting. I simply hate my boss for taking MY suggestions and showcasing these points as his own to the seniors.
4. Oh! So you think you are really smart? You are trying to prove ME wrong. Just wait and watch how I prove you dumb.
5. Yeah! Yeah! It’s always Jack, all his answers are right and all his moves correct. Everyone praises him for the way he talks, laughs or even dines!

Let's be bold and list out some more dialogues which really show how attached we are to our ego.

Some More Dailogues:
1. “I know my weakness. No need to give advice to me.”
2. “You really feel you know everything? But, I guess I am not wrong.”
3. “Why do I find her still the same? She is dumb. Why do you feel she has changed for the better?
4. "Sorry I can’t share my mobile and laptop with friends and family."
5. "Don’t change the channel. I am watching the News."
