We see a lot of conversations on the internet where people talk about the importance of being humble. They say being humble will take you places, BUT, they forget to tell you that being too humble won’t take you anywhere.

There is a thin line between being humble and being too humble. The difference is big. One can take you to great heights, meanwhile the other can prevent others from knowing about you.

In the current world we ...

But why is accountability so hard?
It's largely because we aren't very good at admitting when we've made mistakes. It sucks!

In fact, scientifically, our brains will naturally do wha...

Yes, almost everyone judges others at some point. Judging is a natural part of human behavior and instinct that's difficult to suppress. Here are some reasons why:
