Self-exaltation

**Self-exaltation** refers to the act of excessively praising or elevating oneself, often to appear superior or more important than others. It involves an inflated sense of ego and can lead to arrogance or boastfulness. In discussions around personal growth, humility, or leadership, self-exaltation is typically viewed as a negative trait to be mindful of and balanced with self-awareness and respect for others.
