Humility is a virtue that is often overlooked in today's world. It is seen as a weakness, a sign of insecurity. But true humility is not about thinking less of yourself. It is about thinking of yourself less.
What is Humility?
Humility is the quality of being humble. It is the opposite of arrogance and pride. A humble person is not boastful or self-important. They are aware of their own limitations and are not afraid to admit when they are wrong.
Humility is not about thinking less of yourself. It is about thinking of yourself less. It is about putting others before yourself and considering their needs before your own.
