Pride is self-importance and self-focus -- which leads to selfishness which is selfish thinking and selfish acting -- which is the opposite of Jesus' command of agape love (John 13:34).
Mowing Direction. Finally, you should mow your lawn in different directions each week so it does not lay down one particular way. If you mow the exact same direction every week, your grass will be trained to lay one way (much like training your hair to lay over) and this will cause issues.
Prevention and Maintenance. You can discourage crabgrass by mowing at the proper height for your grass type. Higher mowing, usually at one of the top two setting on your mower, encourages lawn grasses to shade soil which helps prevent the germination of crabgrass seeds. A thick, full lawn seldom contains much crabgrass.
