240213 What I learned in my studies this morning 4

Today's Meditation(s):

Enchiridion 6 (Waterfield)

I've done fairly well in life to limit my pride. Accepting my accomplishments without downplaying them, I don't usually crow about them or look for the praise of others.

(Receiving praise is for me, as for most people, of course often quite satisfying. But I don't expect it.)

Given that praise is easily located within the sphere of 'what is not up to me,' this bent of personality has saved me much consternation over the years.

But there's always work to be done, improvement to be made.
