Always Think About What Is Above You
"It’s easy for power to go to your head. You see all the people that work for you and think you’re important.

When you look at who is beneath you, who you’re doing better than, ego creeps in. Being someone’s 'superior'—whether that’s a superior officer or just a superior salesman—makes us feel superior."Find out how to defeat that impulse in today's Daily Stoic Podcast.***If you enjoyed this week’s podcast, we’d love for you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
