Why is thinking I do more bhajan than others a problem, and how do I stay humble?

Feeling superior is the path of fall

Thinking you do more bhajan (devotional practice) than others and placing yourself above them is a path of downfall, not progress. The one who sees himself lower than a blade of grass, honors everyone and keeps chanting the Name becomes a mahatma.

In spiritual life the one who considers himself superior will fall. Spiritual life happens when one is humbler than a blade of grass, tolerant like a tree, gives respect to others and does not seek it, and always chants the Lord's name.
