Jonathan Keese speaks about Conceit (Arrogance)






Because we often think we're smarter than those around us, we act without seeking the advice or counsel of others. It's much easier to act first and seek advice later. And since we think we know more than others anyway, we simply take the action that we want to take. We simply need to accept that there are others who are as smart and wise as we are, if not more so, and seek their counsel before making major decisions and acting upon them. Those who are truly diligent seek out the advice of several wise counselors before embarking on any important course of action. This is one of the most valuable lessons that I have learned and now I share this lesson with you.
