Does your ego ever get in the way of solving your problems?
Sometimes I cling to an idea that no longer makes sense. Sometimes I avoid launching into the analysis of a problem because it might put my assumption on the line. It could even bruise my ego. Yikes.
We can do better than that.
Sometimes my biggest obstacle in solving problems is my ego. Once I let go of that the solution is clear.
Are you willing to let go of your ego long enough to really see the problem's root cause?
I think you'll like the results.
