A truly learned man neither blames others, nor becomes flush with excitement because of his inherent or achieved strength. Nor does he become shaky in the face of difficult circumstances.One must be as afraid of one’s ego or false sense of pride as one is afraid of a rabis dog. Just as you do not touch poison or a poisonous snake, cultivate detachment from your achievements. Also be aloof from persons who do not believe in your achievements or success. And more important – direct the activities of your mind and heart towards God.Too much trust and dependence on others will make you utterly helpless and miserable. Look within your self for direction and not towards others. Your honesty will strengthen your determination and this strengthened determination will take you to your desired goal.
