In a plain-spoken mixture of societal reproach and individual self-help, Joel Krech presents an approach for managing the ego while shaping the course of our own lives and interacting with others. As a former prison guard, military officer, and Fortune 500 manager, Krech asks, "what really drives us to forget the lessons of our childhood and treat ourselves and others poorly, even when we have justification to do so? Why do we consciously or subconsciously think we must act that way?" This book examines the role of the ego in those decisions. Through a series of short stories told to the reader in the setting of a conversation taking place in the author's backyard, Krech shares how the ego can be harnessed, managed, and controlled to a good and virtuous effect to benefit both the reader and the people in their life.
