EGO and Pride Squash Productivity

When we can’t tell the client we don’t quite get what they want, so we plough on half cocked – they might think we are dumb?

When we can’t ask the team for help as they’ll think we are a weak link.

When we can’t mention someones great work, in case they don’t reciprocate what we contribute and we feel like a failure.

When someone’s struggling and we don’t know what to do, so we let them struggle. ‘I should really know what to do here‘ we judge ourselves by.

When we can’t apologise as that would mean admitting we were wrong.

When we put on a brave face as we can’t admit we are scared, lonely or vulnerable.

There is something in Pride Comes Before A Fall. 

Pride Comes Before A Fall – in Productivity.

Do you have an EGO or does your EGO have you? #selfawareness #humility #selfcontrol #emotionalintelligence #mentalhealth
