' The ego wants attention '...

"The ego thinks it gains something by getting attention—it wants to validate itself.

It wants to be visible because then it feels real, so it looks for attention to make itself experience visibility.

In this way ego has created a story, and the attention it receives enables the idea that you are that ego, that you are the one seeking attention.

Then mistaken identity happens!

See how this game works?"
