When it comes to big egos there are two basic types at opposite ends of a spectrum. The first actually believes they can accomplish the impossible and change things for the better.This sort inspires vision and greatness in those surrounding them, spearheading collaborative efforts that exceed what was thought possible - the first landing on the moon in less than 10 years.What egos those first NASA engineers and scientists must have had.
The second type assumes the world owes them - greatness, grandeur, and control.
Owed their greatness they crush anyone in the way using tools of fear, repressiveness, subjugation and over-reaching control - Stalin comes to mind.
One is a talented optimist and positive force, the second a narcissist, usually aided by a solid dose of sociopathy - by their nature, destructive, demoralizing, repressive.
The origins of the ego - matter - the size of the ego - not so much.
