Praise is dangerous. Reckless or immoderate praise can make even the smartest person overconfident and subsequently prone to act foolish. Well-intentioned praise then becomes an inadvertent disrupter of a person's balance and confidence; ultimately, a source of personal harm. Some people may even think praise is a duty of compassion or love. How countertuitive and disappointing life is sometimes. Too soon old, too late wise.
