How to “sacrifice your ego” the easy way (without beating yourself up):

Turn mistakes into fuel Don’t get stuck in guilt (this happens when lacking compassion).
Mistakes aren’t the end—they’re the way forward. Repeat this powerful phrase:
“I’m not perfect, and that’s perfect.”

“My flaws are the doorway to real connection with Hashem.”
