The Smartest People in the Classroom Can Sometimes Have the Biggest Egos


Listen Later

In this week’s episode, Callie discussed what we should do if we are the most egotistical smart person in the room, or if we aren’t and that behavior is making us feel bad about ourselves. Callie also dives into academic competition, self esteem, and the public school system to really show how our egos have been built up academically and why it might not be the best for us. Callie stresses the need to help others in the classroom who are struggling to break down our academic egos, or to focus more on ourselves if we find ourselves comparing ourselves to other students.

Callie encourages listeners to remember to think clearly, and show others compassion when they don’t get it.
