Recipe for humble pie from Melanie Waxman

First you need to -

Wash out your ego every once in a while, as cleanliness is next to godliness not just in body but in humility as well. ~Abbe Yeux-verdi

Then you have to make sure you -

Swallow your pride occasionally, it's non-fattening! ~Author Unknown

Having done that you remember -

Humility does not mean thinking less of yourself than of other people, nor does it mean having a low opinion of your own gifts. It means freedom from thinking about yourself at all. ~William Temple

Then you realise -

A man wrapped up in himself makes a very small bundle. ~Benjamin Franklin

And you don't need to -

talk about yourself; it will be done when you leave. ~Wilson Mizner

When it comes to eating macro and playing sports -

Some people are born on third base and go through life thinking they hit a triple. ~Barry Switzer

Maybe stick with science coz -

When science discovers the center of the universe, a lot of people will be disappointed to find they are not it. ~Bernard Baily

If all else fails try this -

Modesty is the gentle art of enhancing your charm by pretending not to be aware of it. ~Oliver Herford

And in the end

It is well to remember that the entire population of the universe, with one trifling exception, is composed of others. ~Andrew J. Holmes, Wisdom in Small Doses

and

If every fool wore a crown, we should all be kings. ~Welsh Proverb

Enjoy and tell me how it tastes
Love Melanie!
