Humility is in fact, one of the most powerful and important attributes of growth. Being humble helps to build trust and facilitates learning, which are key aspects of leadership and personal development.
The definition of humility is the feeling or attitude that you have no special importance that makes you better than others or having a lack of pride.
At first glance, humility seems like a negative quality, almost like a sign of weakness rather than strength. In reality, humility is a type of modesty that will get you very far in your life as a person, a contender, and a leader. Let’s look at it another way.
A person who lacks humility is arrogant. It is a person who only thinks of themselves and sees themselves as higher and better than others.
There is no room for an arrogant person to improve themselves because they do not recognize their flaws. A person who is not humble does not have a growth mindset.
In this our present world where everyone is starting to claim "woke generation" it's rare to find one who is totally humble.
Take for instance I read a story while surfing the net on a particular day and the lady was like she boarded a bus to her place of abode and when she got to her destination ,
she said she gave the cab man her transport fare with her left hand, and according to her the man told her in a very polite manner that it's against his culture and value.
The lady was so rude to the driver and his beliefs and she still brought it online for the issue to be judged by her fellow "woke" people.
She feels there's nothing wrong with using either of her hands to pay the man's money , truly I agree with her too but let's see the reasons she might be wrong
1. Would she have disrespected her parents at home if they demanded she give them money with her right hand ?
2. What happened to respecting people's belief even if it doesn't suit yours?
3. Would she have acted the same way if she was in India ?
The lesson here is we meet different people everyday,let's respect their belief even if we don't agree with them . Simple courtesy and showing that you're well brought up matters too in dealing with people around you.
If you do something wrong people will refer you back to your background if they're not teaching you well or you're probably a citizen with no morals and respect.
The Points below will show us how to live our life to showcase that we are well cultured
1. Do not judge ,condemn or insult people
2. Acknowledge people's effort and be generous with your praise:
3. Show sincere and genuine interest in people
.4. Admit when you're wrong and apologize
5. Compliments people's dressing to get yourself familiar with them
6. Appreciate people's effort. Appreciating people will make them want to do more
7. Show less ego even God despise the proud.
