The hardest thing for a person  to do is to admit they are wrong.  
<p>
Pride and stubbornness account for more sorrow and loss than lack of talent, education, intelligence or physical strength.
<p>
If you think about it, you will really never escape a problem until you admit there is a problem.
<p>
The biggest problem we face is high-mindedness.  It keeps us from seeing things as they really are.  It keeps us in bodage to our current situation.  
<p>
It is possible to be meekly high-minded!  Yes, those who are weak and humble can be in bondage to theit convictions about weakness and humility.
<p>
High-mindedness is the result of not bringing your thoughts and attitudes under submission to the Word of God .
