Egoism begins and ends with Stirner, with some select supplementation by Nietzsche. It's a philosophy that has been intentionally ignored for over a century and a half now. Everyone knows how destructive it is and don't want to give up ideology, so they do their best to bury Stirner rather than add to him because it's become clear they can't refute him.

his observations were correct, but his framing is wrong, its not about ego and it cant be, for the road to self-actualization is defined by becoming what you weren't already before, there is implicit an "other" which you turn into, framing it in terms of your own egoic desires is to miss the mark on this, for you have no real control of the ebbs and flows of life, which are the opportunities which allow for self transcendence, "You" dont actually "do" much in the way of becoming your best self, rather, you set things up such that your optimal development is always looked for in all circumstances.
