…is when a person cannot accurately estimate himself, his abilities and true strength.
If you cannot accurately access your standing, you fall into self-deceit and you cannot grow.
We now live in a polite society where nobody is willing to tell you their real assessment of you, more than ever before you need to be able to criticize yourself and look for all the things you are doing wrong and how you can get better.
If you keep singing praises to yourself everyday and proclaiming that all is well, when it obviously isn’t. You have yourself to blame in the long.
When the world deceives you,
When your family members shy away from the truth,
When your friends lead you on,
Do yourself a favour: do not deceive yourself.
REFLECTION
Do I have an accurate sense of my true capabilities or am I overhyping myself?
ACTION
A little humility and honesty is key. What is my real level? How much more do I need to learn and do?

- Facebook’s court case ends in a $500m judgement awarded to Zenimax. This does not really change anything at Facebook.
