Ego Is the Enemy
Life philosophy
Change your definition of success
from Ego Is the Enemy by Ryan Holiday
When fulfilling your own standards fills you with pride and respect, you will be peaceful and happy. This will keep you going even when things get tough. However, if recognition and rewards are what you seek, you will be disappointed more often than not.
How to Apply This
-
Focus on doing your work well
-
Tell yourself, “I will not to base my self-worth on recognition and rewards”
The outcomes of your work are not as important as the work itself.
