"Humility is born of the spirit, humiliation of the ego" - Alan Cohen
The ego is controlling.
It is misleading.
It is defensive.
It is judgemental.
It is toxic.
It prevents you from being a humble being.
From being someone who understands that they have faults.
Someone that doesn't know everything.
Someone who is not afraid to admit defeat.
Someone who is not afraid to be humiliated.
Someone willing to learn and grow.
Humility is essential to continual growth.
Be a student, always.
Be humble, always.
Be better, always.
Continual grow, always.
If you'd like to hear more about the ego, I detail my personal thoughts and struggles with it in my latest blog post "Battle of the ego". Please have a read and let me know your thoughts!
Strive to live, live to strive.
