Getting humbled

We feel we’re the best.

No one can stop us. We’re unbeatable. We can do no wrong. We’re going to keep winning.

Until we don’t.

We lose a huge deal. We lose a race. We get fired. We get beat. Fuck.

In that moment we realize, we’re not unbeatable. We’re not the best version of ourselves. We have a long way to go.

Getting humbled is one of the most important steps on the journey to self improvement and growth.

We can either learn from that moment or give up.

Accepting defeat is not easy but getting humbled can be exciting.

We just have to look at it as an opportunity to get better.
