Has your ego ever been inflated so many times in the past already that any more inflating could cause you to explode?

What keeps you humble??

    What keeps me humble is knowing that I am not an expert in all things.  Knowing that I have much yet to learn and being willing to learn from other opinions is paramount to maintaining humility.

    No, it is just the opposite.  The Lord is my humility.  Next to him I am nothing, without him I am nothing.

    My ego could benefit from some inflation.

    If you are rich enough to go ahead and do it, you could take flying lessons and get your pilot's license. Or scuba diving..  or something that is a challenge that you feel reasonably sure you could succeed at.

    I don't have one of those and if I did, I wouldn't know what to do with it.
