Growth in knowledge, income, career, and business should be handled with care and not make us proud and arrogant. It should cause us to be thankful, humble and gracious towards others who are still in their success journey. No need to boast and brag.
No amount of physical beauty will ever replace a beautiful heart. A person with a beautiful heart exhibits humility and kindness. Those without may be governed by pride and ego.
It's good to cringe at your former self. When you pursue genuine improvement, you are prone to deep focus, cultivating a depth that is hard to fake. That depth is a necessary ingredient of success.

Your life can literally change in a year. You just have to love yourself enough to know you deserve more, be brave enough to demand more and be disciplined enough to actually work for it.
People do not remember how you started your job. But they will remember how you exited your job. You were welcomed warmly, and if you have to leave, exit gracefully. Do not be resentful. Do not bad mouth even if you think someone deserves it.
Show kindness. Show consideration. Practice empathy. Not everyone who appears rude or abrasive is inherently bad; they may be going through tough times.
