A note from Daniel

Our ego tempts us into thinking we're more than we are. Left unchecked, it can turn confidence into overconfidence or even arrogance. We get a bit of knowledge on the internet and suddenly we are full of hubris. Everything seems easy. As a re-sult, we take risks that we may not understand we're taking. We must resist this kind of unearned confidence, though, if we are to get the results we desire.
