When someone sings your praises today, be grateful: but also be humble. Your pride is powerful, and it might come off as arrogant to the people who don't know you well. What these people think does matter, and unfortunately it's important to manage how you come off to others. Your reputation is something you need to cultivate more consciously. Don't act in a way that isn't true to who you are: but you might want to tone things down.
