Leave Your Ego at the Door!

On a daily basis, I absolutely make dozens of mistakes and missteps and yet being able to slow down long enough to admit it… wow… that can really be the hard part. Your ego wants you to walk through this world with confidence and all the answers at your disposal. And yet, in love, this couldn’t be further from reality or even to the benefit of your relationship.

In order to have vulnerability, you also need humility. In order to have connection, you also need humility. In order to have trust, you also need humility.

You have to be able to admit when you’re wrong and bite your lip when you secretly want to gloat that you’re right. You can’t let your ego rule the show in love.

And that is my encouragement this week.

Don’t let your ego rule the show in love. Humility is strength.

Take a step back and lead with humility. Realize that true connection with another comes from not having all of the answers and still being brave enough to figure them out together. Not letting your ego take center stage. And when you’re wrong, just say so.

Until next week,

-A
