One of the biggest tools that Satan has at his disposal is the sin of pride and arrogance. One of the biggest downfalls to arrogance that you will only find in the fine print of the deal that Satan is trying to get you to sign is this: arrogance limits or restricts your ability to properly, honestly, and adequately self-reflect and self-assess. Arrogance causes us to see only what we want to, and for that reason, arrogant people will always be at a disadvantage to those more humble than they are, mainly because honest self-reflection leads to very real and tangible self-improvement.

Honest self-reflection takes a great deal of courage to accomplish, and if it were an easy task, everyone would be doing it. However, if we are able to table our pride long enough to see ourselves for who we really are, that will inspire us to change our ways, and we will be all the better for it. It starts with a single step, then another, but it is a long and arduous journey, requiring us to be ever watchful to avoid complacency, and the return to our prideful and wicked ways.
