Humility Is A Divine Virtue To Success

Hi lovers of Female Guide, humility is a virtue generally supported and encouraged by all religion we practiced all over the world. Humility is one very important virtue every human being must have, but you need to possess it in a way that glorifies God. It is of core importance to be modest so that you can be a better friend and life partner.

The thing is, no matter how smart, successful, good-looking or special you are, nobody likes a braggard. Nobody likes arrogance. Nobody likes cockiness.

It’s really important to practice humility, to develop into a better leader and a better person. Humility and vulnerability make us more likeable. I have a long way to go still, but each day I remind myself just how small I am in the amazing, wondrous world around me, and that helps me to stay humble.

Humility is when a person does not see himself as being better or above other people because of frivolous reasons like social standing, education, citizenship, or even color. You might want to be “perfect” in every way and even believe that you are so, but you need to be humble for respectable relationships in your life.

Being humble doesn’t mean to think less of yourself, it actually simply means to think of yourself less. You can have strong self-esteem but not brag or make a big deal of yourself to others. In fact, it’s most often people with low self-esteem that feel the need to do that in order to make themselves feel better. Here are ways you can train yourself to have more humility in your soul:

1. Practice Gentility: Gentleness of spirit is the sure path to humility. Practicing gentleness will help you rediscover your sense of wonder as you focus on the positive aspects of life.
2. Admit your mistakes: Admitting your mistakes shows that you’re not stubborn, selfish, or unwilling to not look perfect. Although you may fear that people will be angry and frustrated with you, it is always better to admit than to cover it up. Whether you’ve made a mistake as a boss, parent, or friend, people will appreciate the fact that you’re willing to admit that you’re not perfect and that you’re working to improve yourself and the situation.
3. Be sincere with your apology: Make eye contact when you apologize to show that you really care. Don’t be a repeat offender. Apologizing about something does not give you a license to do it again. Doing so will make people distrusting of you and what you say.
4. Be grateful for what you have: Though you have undoubtedly worked hard for what you have, you could not have done it all without other people’s support. Everything we do is a result of what many other people have done to us. It is all because of the people around us that we get shaped and become better persons at some point so that we could achieve our goals.
5. You are not the best in everything, Admit it: Even if you are ‘the best’ in the world at doing one thing, there are always other things that you cannot do, and may never be able to do. Recognizing your limitations does not mean abandoning your dreams, and it does not mean giving up on learning new things or improving your existing abilities. It simply means acknowledging that, as human beings, none of us are perfect and none of us can do everything by ourselves.
6. Don’t take all the credit: Share the love. Recognize others who have helped you on your path to success.We are human beings and who we are now has a lot to do with other people’s influence and guidance. Countless people have given you support and helped you to become the person you are so that you can achieve your dreams. It’s totally fine to be proud about your achievements, but keep in mind that nobody ever does anything totally by themselves, and that as people, we are all helping each other to accomplish our goals.
7. Stop comparing yourself with others: Every individual is unique. Appreciate people for who they are as human beings, not for their skills and appearance in relation to yours. While competition can be healthy and stimulating, it’s nearly impossible to be humble when we’re constantly striving to be the “best” or trying to be better than others. When you focus your energy on improving yourself instead of comparing you to everyone else, you’ll find that it is much easier to make yourself better since you don’t have to worry about whether or not you’re better or worse than anyone.
8. Remain Teachable: You can be more humble by taking classes in something you know nothing about, such as digital marketing, or photography, and knowing that you will let others teach you and show you the way. This can help you realize that everyone is good at different things and we all need to help each other in order to become better people.
9. Recognise your own fault: Work to address your flaws. Remember that growth and improvement is a lifelong process that never stops happening, even when you’re very skilled at something. We make judgments about others all the time, usually without even realizing it. Consider how you can improve yourself, instead of how you think others should act. After all, you cannot control other people’s decisions and behaviors – but you can control yours.
10. Avoid bragging. It’s okay to have a healthy self-esteem and to feel proud of your accomplishments, but nobody likes it when someone constantly tries to bring attention to themselves and their own achievements. This doesn’t mean you should lie about achieving something; if someone asked if you about your grade, then it’s perfectly acceptable to say ‘First Class’ But don’t constantly talk about how absolutely amazing you were for being the best graduating student of your set, or achieving other goals.
11. Appreciate the skills and talents of others: Being able to appreciate the talents and qualities of other people can also make you recognize qualities that you want to improve or attain within yourself. Understand that everybody is different and relish the chance you have to experience different people.
12. Seek Guidance: If you’re not into spirituality, consider the scientific method. Science requires humility. It requires that you let go of your preconceived notions and judgments and understand that you don’t know as much as you think you do.
13. Be a good listener: Ask questions to show that you understand what the person is talking about. Don’t just wait for the person to stop talking so that you can start talking. Remember, if you’re busy thinking about what you want to say, then you’ll have a harder time focusing on what they are saying. The next time you engage in a conversation, let the other person talk, don’t interrupt, and ask questions to keep the person talking and sharing.
14. Spend more time in nature: Spending more time in nature will make you see how big and complicated the world is — and that you’re not at the center of it. Go take a walk in the park. Stand near the bottom of a waterfall. Look at the world from the top of a mountain. Go for a long hike. Swim in an ocean. Find your own way of being in nature and take the time to truly appreciate all that it entails. Close your eyes and feel the breeze on your face. You should feel completely humbled by nature – a force that is so immense in its depth and power.

Honestly, it can be pretty hard to be humble, especially if you live in a society that encourages competition and individuality. Yet even in such society, humility remains an important virtue. Learning to be humble is of paramount importance and humility can help you develop more fully and enjoy richer relationships with others, as well as create opportunities and earn you respect. Sadly, your family won’t stay with you longer if you are an arrogant and snobbish person.
