Could you go a day without saying “I” or “mine”? Could you even go an hour? You will catch yourself a multitude of times,
and when you do, what if you shift your focus to another? “But I give all I have to others,” you say,
and do you not see that in doing so, you are giving to the Self? You are all One. Young soldiers are taught to do away with the
sense of “I.” This brings on a sense of
being part of something greater. See yourself today not as “I,” but as “this
one”—this one aspect of the Whole. A
change in perspective will be good.

Some of this message is good. However, the bit about young soldiers being taught to do away with the 'I' is not so good. True, but not good. What is really taken away is their 'spirit' and not their ego. Their spirit which differenciates between right and wrong it replaced by the 'greater ego' of the We, which is sold as more important than 'them'. And then once in a while a solder's 'I' (his spirit) is returned to them and he sees what the Mass Ego was asked him to do against them, against his 'I'nner Spirit, and then they break. Don't make the mistake thinking the 'I' geing taken away from them as good.
