These days, we're encouraged to be better and faster than the people around us. We're pushed by peers and competition. And constantly encouraged to carry a dogged determination to get the job done. All of this comes with a healthy dose of egotism and arrogance---even though it is often contrived and even more often corrosive. What if taking a more humble path could be a more rewarding---and palatable---way of reaching your goals?

I could be
