Being humble

 
People who carry shame have a strong attachment...
to being right
If you already feel flawed,
being wrong exposes the underlying shame.

It will be hard admit to others when you make mistakes.
You try to blame them...
because humbling yourself to admit you were wrong...
feels humiliating.
 
Shame hides behind pride, stubbornness, and defensiveness.
 Getting more honest, being vulnerable, and doing your work,
is how you begin to heal it.
