1. Drop Your Ego
Most people let their egos prevent them from getting started. They’re afraid to look foolish, so they rather stay in their comfort zone. If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid. You first need to be a beginner before you can become a master. Don’t let your ego prevent you from getting started.

Drop your ego and get started.
