Im struggling and need advice. | God wants us to love each other as we love ourselves. This means letting go of pride and being humble enough to respect others. Pride can cause a lot of pain for you and those around you. Does anyone have some teachings or advice on being less prideful? | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Well, the world has different definitions of pride than the bible does.
Bible pride: "Ha, I am better than you."
World pride: I am good.
Its one thing to understand your position, another to assume others.
"If you live for people's acceptance, you will die from their rejection."
-Lecrae Moore
Pride is when you compare yourself to others and claiming to be more advanced or important. Humility is knowing exactly where you are and accepting it.

Also, if somebody asks for an opinion, your opinion should not change based on your skill set. If you score 30 points is a basketball ball game, but a friend get his first game with 10 points, your game should not affect how you congratulate him.

Pride has many sides like a dice, The best side is Virtuous Pride, This pride helps you to gain confidence, To have less self doubt, Virtuous Pride and Humility go together like bread and butter.
So as long as it's not too much pride.
"I couple drops can save thirst, But a lot can drown."

It's the same virtuous pride that saves people from considering suicide.
