Dilemma with Ego death

I have been self introduced to this site for like one week and i have to say like the page suggests the truckload of information has been much overwhelming for me. I used to smoke pot regularly but lately its been like once a twice a week or so. Have never done shrooms but planning to have a trip in a week. I realize the following is too much to ask for one who has never done shrooms or had a psychedelic experience but if there is any chance by means i could explore and expand my mind , experience ego death, see the other side of life and have a positive outlook on life thereafter i would be more than happy and thrilled to do the same. This may come out little insipid but what if a person who is looking forward to be better in is career (which he loves) or trying to improve in something(like playing guitar or in gym) experience ego death ,completely vanishes his feeling of myself ,harmonize with the nature and realize there is actually no need for this so called success . Wouldn't it be unfair to his skills and career?

It's not unfair. but realize this, you do not need to experience ego death to improve your life.

I don't think anyone truly knows what ego death is or truly means. In reality our lives are fairly subjective experiences. What I do know is that caring about things makes life worth living.

Ive had one really intense ego death on shrooms when I lemon tekked 4gs.It was more like showing what I was made of,all my mistakes, faults, sucesses , guilt , repressed memories etc. It a was beautiful, horrifying, mind opening expirience and helped me change in positive ways. However I would NEVER recommend a lemon tek or a high dose to someone with NO psychedelic history. At the time, I had tripped about 15 times on pretty decently strong shrooms .And I was not even nearly ready for something that intense, it showed me Christ, the devil & lots and lots of demon like entities. Honestly for the entire day I was more scared then I had ever been, I had to call my best friend and have him convince me I was not verbally and mentally crazy.
That being said I would start at a smaller dose somewhere around and 1/8th,if you like it then try 4-5g.Once you eat the shrooms there isn't any getting it out.I promise an 1/8th will not disappoint
