292. The power of humility

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

Sometimes we just need to humble ourselves. We need to tell our ego to take a back seat and let ourselves fail, let ourselves be beginners, be bested, admit we were wrong and in today's episode I'm going to explain the exact psychological power of humility, including: 

  • The 3 different definitions of ego
  • Why your ego is sabotaging you and keeping you stagnant 
  • 5 subtle signs your ego is taking over
  • Why humility makes us happier, more successful, and better connected
  • How to refocus from self-centeredness to contribution and connection + so much more
