Pride Traps You at Local Maxima

Atom · refreshed Search related

Pride keeps you stuck at a suboptimal peak because going back down to climb a higher one feels like admitting you were wrong.

The proudest people never make it to the taller mountain because the ego cost of retreating feels too high.
