Today’s wisdom is from Ego Is the Enemy by Ryan Holiday.
Who tells us: “Ego is the enemy of what you want to achieve.”
Now it’s a little more nuanced than that but we’ll go with it.
An unhealthy ego blinds us to reality, hinders our growth, and disconnects us from others.
Here’s how to tame your ego and get it integrated and healthy today:
1. Adopt a Beginner’s Mindset. Ryan tells us: “Always stay a student.” Be humble, be curious, be open, be coachable.
2. Detach from Praise and Criticism. He says: “Don’t let either inflate or deflate you.”
3. Serve Others. “The purpose of life is not to be remembered, but to make a difference.”
So… What’s one way you can keep your ego in check today?
