Question
Ego can significantly affect our ability to learn from our mistakes. It often distorts our perception of failures and successes. When we fail, our ego tends to blame others, preventing us from acknowledging and learning from our mistakes. On the other hand, when we succeed, our ego tends to inflate the success, ignoring the contributions of others and potentially leading us to overestimate our abilities. This can hinder our growth and learning.
