Pride

Pride can get in the way of seeing things as they are. Holding on so tightly to the status quo we can get in the way of progress.

There is also the other kind of pride. The kind where you made something that you are proud to have your name on it. The kind of pride you have if a project fails, you were still proud you tried it. The kind of pride that comes when you see the rewards play out decades later.

What is it that we are truly proud of? And how can we rally around this person or thing to make it better?
