If a blind person leads a blind person, both of them will fall into a hole.
Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else,
For the day of the LORD of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low:
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.
Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.
Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
If anyone thinks they are something when they are not, they deceive themselves.
"Proud," "Haughty," "Scoffer," are his names, Who acts with insolent pride.
For behold, the day is coming, burning like a furnace; and all the arrogant and every evildoer will be chaff; and the day that is coming will set them ablaze," says the LORD of hosts, "so that it will leave them neither root nor branch"
For the sin of their mouths, the words of their lips, let them be trapped in their pride

However. Slay the ego.
