Moulana Yunus Patel saheb mentions that the higher a person goes in sulook, the more a person must instill tawadhu (humility in the self).

He explains like how a person is on the first step, then if he falls, he will not get much hurt. But if someone is on the 99th step, if that person falls, the not only will it hurt, well his whole head will smash.

So we should always consider ourselves to be small and not think highly of ourselves.

Tere Gulistan mein sab gul hain
Bas ek agar hoon to khaar mein hoon

In Your garden everyone is a rose
I am the one thorn (sorry I never know how to translate this verse properly)

Not only is the thorn insignificant, but it also causes harm. Moulana saheb continued explaining that just like a thorn, how many people do we knowingly or unknowingly cause hurt to. So then if not a thorn, then what else are we?

Annihilating pride is such a hard battle. May Allah Ta'aala give us all the strength, Ameen.

I guess one thing is remember this

Majal hai kuch bhi kar sakoon mein
Jo Tu na tawfeeq eh Khuda de

What possibility is there for me to do anything if You do not give me the ability, Oh Lord?
Your will overpowers everything; all the plans I make are insignificant.
