How To Recognize Humility
For centuries , humility has been a virtue. Today, it is still highly valued and we appreciate it among world leaders and also among those we interact with on a daily basis in a more intimate way.
Humility is not folly, but simplicity of greatness.
However, some people are changed by success, and some of the qualities they were recognized for are corrupted.
This leads to the question: What are the characteristics that characterize humble people?
How are humble people?
The most obvious characteristic is that they are strongly involved in a special aspect of their lives. They do not seek success or fame, but honor and talent in what they do. Whether they work as sculptors, housewives or doctors.
They want to improve the lives of others without bragging about it, by focusing on the process rather than the result. They are thus receptive to possible changes along the way.
Their instructions, commands or commands are not coercive, but convey an authority that is open to criticism and improvement.
They listen to others with interest without underestimating the value of those who come to them, whether they are craftsmen or politicians. For them, each approach is interesting because they allow them to understand different points of view or draw more accurate conclusions about the world around them.
They stay away from displays of power. They feel that their reward comes with a job well done rather than general recognition.
They greet, converse and say goodbye. Kindness to them is not just politeness, but an expression of good behavior and care of the people around them.
They do not judge lightly, and they are empathetic. They perform small actions every day to simplify the lives of those around them, without noticing that they are doing so. Their behavior is a natural, simple and honest flow.
They are consistent with their privacy and the general ideas they express. Hypocrisy does not exist in their behavioral patterns.
For them , reaching a very high level is not as important as staying at one, even if it is a “lower” one, while developing a dignified and useful activity.
And those who lack humility?
They are arrogant, lack any form of self-criticism and exercise an attitude of moral, intellectual and economic superiority. Relationships with these people are very unpleasant.
They do not exchange views to enrich themselves; they think that the only way to force on others their own points of view is to avoid their opinions and to mock and bully them.
They do not listen. They give life lessons and advice that they expect others to follow. Most often, these proposals involve an implicit gain for themselves.
They are obsessed with power and success.
On an emotional level , they show happiness to others as if it were a trophy. In reality , however, they feel empty and lack true meaning in their daily relationships.
Therefore , you should exercise humility without fear of being insignificant. You will make a bigger impression than you think and get more peace of mind.
