I wondered why people with ego or overconfidence seem to be rewarded by society, asking @chinmaydoteth for analysis. "Replying to @chinmaydoteth: @chinmaydoteth hmm. good to know but i still want to figure out why people with ego or even overconfidence are so rewarded by the society"
I was probing the original poster’s rationale and asking how much additional ego I should adopt, reflecting a moment of self‑assessment about confidence and behavior.
