đź“– Ego Is the Enemy - A Book I Highly Recommend
Your ego is probably holding you back more than you realize.
It’s the voice that makes you defend your mistakes instead of learning from them.
It’s the force that makes you compare yourself to others instead of focusing on your growth.
It’s the reason you sometimes feel “too good” to start small, or “too proud” to admit you don’t know something.
Ryan Holiday’s „Ego Is the Enemy” hit me hard.
It’s not about killing your confidence — it’s about seeing your ego for what it is:
a constant temptation to choose comfort over growth.
Some key takeaways:
- Stay a student. No matter how far you’ve come, always have the humility to keep learning.
- Resist the need for recognition. Focus on doing the work, not getting the applause.
- Don’t let success make you complacent. Stay hungry, stay disciplined.
This book isn’t “motivational fluff.” It’s a mirror — and sometimes you won’t like what you see.
But that’s exactly why you should read it.
I’d love to hear:
Where do you think your ego gets in the way the most? In learning? In relationships? In your goals?
