Don’t let your ego hinder your progress

If you are smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room.
The Internet is loaded with people with big egos and big mouths, but it’s not the only place.
You meet people in your everyday life like that too.
So why are they like that?
The short answer is fear. They are so insecure that they mouth off to try and make themselves sound important or strong.
In lifting and in life, ego will mess you up if you don’t get it under control.
I recently saw the book, Ego Is The Enemy,  in a photo of Zach Even-Esh’s library, and it is one of very the best book I have read on leadership and life. No, you don’t have to buy this book, but it just might answer a lot of questions for you. It did for me.
If your training is stagnant, maybe it’s your ego not your muscles causing the problem.

Talk is cheap, that is why it is so popular.
