It is poise not Pose

 

It is poise not Pose

from biography of william t sherman (american general with Abraham Lincoln)

There are 2 types of people - First, who rise to fame and achievement through their belief in themselves;
and there is other kind - it is low growth based on actual achievement . for the second type , success is a constant surprise - with a haunting sense of self-doubt, if its not all a dream. in that doubt lies true modesty

for first group, belief in themselves - is dependent on Ego, which is in fact nothing. 

Shakespeare called it thus - "Frailty, thy name is Ego"

my words:
Egos is the scaffolding made of spaghetti; 

don't rely on it to build your Life!
