Humility is the ability to place oneself into a mental state that exhibit low self esteem or servitide This is somewhat true if you see that 'exhibit' is a different word than 'possess'. "kic'...I used "exhibit" because humility deals with suffering...and one might exhibit signs of suffering doing an episode of humility and you are right that humility can seem like a brief possession as one comes to an unpleasant realization about oneself, but generally it stated that an individual has to first "suffer humility" |

50 Ways to Show humility.... Use the response “It’s My Pleasure” when someone thanks you for doing something. Use the response “I’d be honored” when someone asks you to help them or do something with them. Listen more than you talk Count to 3 before adding to a conversation to ensure the other person is done Be willing to follow another person in conversation even if you don’t get to talk about your idea Always offer to improve someone else’s idea and give them credit Give credit for other’s ideas that you are carrying through on Ask others for the opinion of others Ask others to join conversations and contribute It’s OK to be wrong and so admit it Admit when you don’t understand or know something Appreciate others who learn something quickly and say so Be quick to apologize when you do something wrong Study moral principles Use moral principles to guide you Understand you were created by something greater than yourself Recognize your talents as gifts, not your own ability Know how your skills have only been developed by the help of others Share your own knowledge to pass on what you have learned Pass on thanks when you receive it to those who helped you achieve what you were thanked for doing Value other people’s time as much as your own Never equate time spent with people to a dollar value Don’t boast about your achievements, let others recognize them instead Keep your goals to yourself Help other people with their goals Realize the potential in others Know that timing is everything and everyone excels at different times in life Being the 1st follower is often the best way to lead Since winning isn’t everything, you don’t have to win Recognize that you have faults Remember you are you are no better or worse than anyone else Ignore first impressions of people Give others the benefit of the doubt Provide positive and encouraging feedback instead of criticism Make a choice to act more humbly Practice at least one humble act each day Be grateful for successes without boasting about them Know how to accept praise with a simple thank you, don’t elaborate on it or talk more about it Recognize the individualism of others and yourself, there is no need to conform Share your core values and live them accordingly regardless of the circumstances Prioritize things in your life and rate your actions on whether to followed that priority or not Rate other people as first, be less significant Forgive those who wrong you and move on without revenge or lashing back Serve others and not yourself first Seek wisdom, which is knowledge of what is true coupled with just judgment of action Recognize and know that you know little and there is always more to learn Avoid explosive reactions, subside aggression Accept new ideas and change, not being stuck on what you knew before Teach all that you can for the benefit of others Learn from and model the life of the most humble teachers in history FANTASTIC words to guide your life. ( wonder where she found them ) I google this..."Give me real life example of a person/people exhibiting humility".... I googled them for Funches...because he was asking about humility and what it mean.... wow all for me...thanks Leigh ..... but the list you place is about following a philosophy ....humility is not a philosophy..you are thinking about humbleness....supposedly to reach humbleness or perhaps enlightenment one first have to suffer humility |

We all have the right to "view" life differently, understand words differently. Have to make things work our own way. What is right/works for one, might not work for another. Need to remember to respect & accept each other. Even if it means disagreeing & letting things pass us by.

Humility is the ability to place oneself into a mental state that exhibit low self esteem or servitide This is somewhat true if you see that 'exhibit' is a different word than 'possess'. "kic'...I used "exhibit" because humility deals with suffering...and one might exhibit signs of suffering doing an episode of humility and you are right that humility can seem like a brief possession as one comes to an unpleasant realization about oneself, but generally it stated that an individual has to first "suffer humility" You used 'exhibit' to describe how one shows low self esteem, and servitude. I suggest to you that one may 'exhibit' this appearance without actually possessing low self esteem and servitude...as in a behaviour, and not a feeling. I hope that makes sense. I never said 'humility' was a possession, but sure, that makes sense too. I used "exhibit" because an indivivdual can not make a claim of humility because it would equate to bragging...only a person or persons that witness the individual exhibiting signs of possible humility can made the claim |

then again humility does not have to have anything to do with servitude or low self esteem
in fact usually it does not |

funches, I have a feeling that by examining the word 'humility' you have taken its root and extended thought to another word: 'humiliation'. They have the same root, but these words have different meanings. "kic"...you're right again...humility is a form of self-humilitation ...it's the realization of something negative about oneself...why else would one seek to change their behavior or create lists to follow |
|

I really don't do well with humility.
The heat in the desert is bad enough but when you add all that water, well, I just sweat like nobody's bizzzness. |

I have always tried to carry my self in accordance to how I do see me in life,,and through others eyes, to be..
So I walk and live and act,,very humble. Yet I also do these,,with a pride within me,,that reflects all of THAT..For who I am as a person in this life.. I am no better than YOU,,yet, YOUR no better than ME. I LIVE to project THIS in everything I do.. Call me and my way of thinking wrong,,if you will? But for me,,its the Human way to review the very small plain that we have here to travel..Freely, openly, unprotected,,and with a promise not to falsely judge others w/o living as they have or do.. One can live,,,to humble,,and never see themselves as worth much? One can live with tomuch pride,and never understand that feeling inside of being defeated? One can never know the art of being humble, if their minds stay closed to their greatness? |

then there was that Fellow who was given the Humility-Award of the Year!
He chose to wear the Pin on his Lapel,so they took it away from him! |

actually it's original meaning was Being Down To Earth,until Religion subverted it's meaning,like it did with many other Terms!
