Can confirm that the answer is to just accept you're a dumbfuck retard. You don't "overcome" or "cast off" the ego so much as you stop resisting it being crushed. The struggle is you struggling with your own grandiosity in the face of contradicting evidence.
Once you give up on your false self-image you'll feel much better and do better work. People will probably like you more, too.
