- humility - count others more significant than yourself.
- make others our primary focus
WRONG ATTITUDE:
- rivalry (self-ambition) - pride that pushes for its own way.
- conceit - literally means “empty glory - the seeking after your own personal glory.
- sinful nature defaults to rivalry and conceit
- the god of “me” is the greatest idol - “me” robs God of his glory and bestows that glory on itself
