What is Humility?
When you are humble you don't act as if you are more important than other people. You are happy to serve others and think other people's needs are important. You don't expect others or yourself to be perfect. You don't criticize others or yourself. You admit mistakes and learn from them. Sometimes mistakes are our best teachers.
Congratulations! You are practicing Humility when you...
- Consider the needs of others as important as your own
- Apologize and make amends when you hurt others
- Learn from your mistakes and keep changing for the better
- Ask for help when you need it
- Are doing you best just to do it, not to impress anyone
- Are grateful instead of boastful
