How to prepare for forseeable ego identification & self-glorification?

[Loving Radiance]

I can sense that I want to claim something coming in the near future.

I also sense the tendency to put myself on a pedestal, imagining to be better & more advanced than other people. I know that we are on our own unique paths and nobody is more ahead than others, however there is still a huge pile of arrogance.

So, do you know anything else to "do" than being aware of the dynamics at play?

I had a similar realization lately: that, although I really don't want to, I am quite arrogant and feel superior due to my insights and developmental steps. I feel a strong aversion because it speaks against who I think I should be and want to be. 

I'm also in the process of finding out how to deal with that, but as with everything, rejection is not the way. I found that a curiosity to understand the dynamic, the clarity to see why it's painful and part of the illusion, and, most importantly, an infusion with love are helping me see it slowly dissolve. I actively feel the love expanding from my heart into wherever this arrogance or superiority is felt, and at some point it just melts into the love itself. I don't think there are any further steps. 

Acceptance -> Understanding -> Love

@peanutspathtotruth I never thought of the steps (->) themselves, but now I see how you can deconstruct that. Danke dir.
