One the most valuable qualities I find in those that I admire, is humility. And it’s rare... especially in this world of social media, self promotion, and “story-telling.” Its a quality that I try to emulate, because when I recognize it in others, it seriously makes me swoon. I don’t care how talented or skilled you are, I am more impressed by your ability to show gratitude and be humble than ANYTHING you can do or make... A few ways to demonstrate humility, IMHO... 1. Say thank you. 2. Practice gratitude - in general. 3. Acknowledge others and their contributions. 4. Praise others and their skills and talents. 5. Admit opportunities for growth and seize them! 6. Allow yourself to make mistakes. Being human is a reminder to be humble. And lastly, and I’ll say it until the day I die, PRACTICE GRATITUDE! This is the number one way to make your life better!! —— Ok I know this is a little preachy, and soap-boxy, and I don’t claim to be the epitome of humility. And if ever need to be checked... CHECK ME! But we are all in this together and a we all can use the reminder. So say it with me... HUMILITY IS THE NEW SEXY!!! LOL. 🤘🏻✨😊 Art by Jason Naylor
