Keep in mind that people often confuse ego with self-esteem. These aren't the same thing. Ego, in this context, is a conscious sense of attachment with your projected self-image. It's what makes you feel bad when people criticize you because the criticism creates a cognitive dissonance between the feedback you're getting and your own self-assessment. Self-esteem is a more a general, innate, subconscious construct that's a result of genuine feelings of confidence and achievement.

Losing your ego just means directing your attention away from your projected self-image and toward your situation and environment. The "here and now" so to speak. The problem with ego in seduction (as well as any other aspect of your life) is that you're only aware of where you are and what you're doing as a secondary concern, focused more on how if affects your ego than what is actually going on. Learning to set your ego aside allows you to be more attuned to the situation you're in. You'll be quicker to pick up on social cues, wittier, less outcome dependent (i.e., less needy, validation seeking, etc), and you'll naturally project a sense of being comfortable in your own skin and be less affected by the ups and downs of the environment.
