The fastest way to grow isn’t chasing more money, followers, or recognition. It’s killing your ego.
Most people are terrified to admit three words: “I don’t know.” But that phrase is the shortcut to mastery.
When you let go of ego, you free yourself to ask questions—sometimes the same questions more than once. You give yourself permission to look dumb. And that’s exactly what accelerates growth. Because every question asked today makes you sharper tomorrow.
The truth? People don’t remember the times you stumbled. They remember when you started to win. And the reason you win is because you were humble enough to learn without worrying what others thought.
Who cares if someone laughs? Who cares if someone thinks you’re behind? Everyone is guessing their way through life anyway. The difference is, the humble learner will eventually pass the proud pretender.
One day, the person who asked the “dumb” questions will be one of the smartest people in the room. Not because they had all the answers from the start, but because they were willing to keep asking.
Ego keeps you stuck. Curiosity sets you free.
Kill your ego. Say you don’t know. Learn without shame. And watch how fast your life changes.
