How many of you have lied to yourself or others about the real reason you failed a test?

How many of you have lied to yourself or others about the real reason you got fired from your job?

How many of you have lied to yourself or others about the real reason you had to file for bankruptcy?

How many of you have lied to yourself or others about the real reason you got divorced?

Everyone has an ego. Unsuccessful people, however, allow their egos to get in the way of the truth.

They offer up excuses as to why something went wrong in their lives. They give into their precious egos.

And, sadly, they are never able to learn and grow from the mistakes they’ve made.

Successful people, on the other hand, forge the habit of being brutally honest about their failings in life. As a consequence, they are able to learn and grow from their mistakes.

Successful people check their egos at the doorway to success.
