Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

without any ego it would be pretty hard to function not believing you could do ANYTHING...

IPoispinning is for me way to express myself, so ego is included.

i'm not actually very good, in the grand scheme of things, so i see things from the opposite point of view to most of you guys.
When i'm spinning with a group, there is always at least one guy (nearly always a guy!) who is blatantly loving themself, getting a buzz from being better than the rest; liking to think they have an audience even tho they're just practising.
And i don't kno; they just don't seem to have as much fun as the people who take it less seriously. if you ever see the look on one of these characters' faces when they mess a move up, you'll know what i mean.
The main reason I like to spin is the almost Zen sense of calm it brings to me. Showing your skills off in front of a crowd is fun, givs u a real ego boost, but i think if that's the only reason you do it then doesn't all the fun go out of just spinning in a park with friends, or in your garden alone??

A couple of balls short of a full cascade... or maybe a few cards short of a deck... we'll see how this all fans out.

I've always had a problem with people who believe wholeheartedly that they are 'great'.

Surly all of us have come across someone who just thinks that they are 'great' and that everyone else should instantly respect them and look up to them.
