The self (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ego

'the self' is the definition.
('ego' can be a synonym of 'self')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ego that I've seen before include "Selfishness" , "One's self image" , "One's self-image" , "Consciousness" , "Self-esteem or self-importance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Sun, the Evening Standard and The Telegraph.
