🏛️ Stoic Quote

Once the ego inflates it will only come back to earth through some jarring failure. - Robert Greene

In modern life, we often see people chasing after validation and success to boost their egos. However, this constant need for external validation can lead to a fall when faced with failure or criticism. It's important to stay humble and focused on personal growth rather than seeking constant approval from others.

“Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

The Bible verse emphasizes the virtue of meekness, which is often interpreted as humility and gentleness. This connects with the lesson by highlighting the importance of humility in avoiding the pitfalls of ego inflation and the subsequent fall from grace.
