Things you need to let go (Part 1)

Number 1 - Excessive Pride

第一，过度的自尊心。

Pride isn't necessarily a terrible thing. It can bring you confidence and self-assurance - which are two great qualities that can help you lead a happy life.

自尊心强，不一定是坏事。它能给你带来自信，它能让你肯定自己，这两种品质能让你过上快乐的生活。

However, pride can also cause destruction through over-confidence and resistance to learning. If your pride is extreme, it can ruin your personal and professional relationships.

然而，自豪感也有坏处，因为它会让人过于自信，并且拒绝学习和进步。如果你的自尊心太强，它会毁掉你生活中和事业上的人际关系。

It's not uncommon for people to let their pride prevent them from acknowledging their mistakes and learn from them - whether it's a project at the office, or an argument with a friend.

很常见的一个现象是，人们的自尊心使他们无法承认自己的错误，无法从错误中学习经验，比如工作中犯的错误，或者和朋友的一次争吵。

It's essential to keep your pride in check and get rid of any excess that is no longer serving you.

要时常观察自己是否过于自鸣得意，如果是，那就要舍弃多余的自尊心，它对你没有益处。
