About This Quote
Unless we humble ourselves and allow ourselves to be judged, we can never know what we are truly capable of. Many of us go through our lives trying to prove that we are better than others. And we end up doing things that we know we shouldn’t do because it’s easier than admitting that we might not be as good as we imagined. But if you look at the greater meaning behind this quote, it suggests that it’s better to admit failure and grow from the experience than it is to pretend that you’re something you’re not.
