Some believe that humility is having&nbsp;low opinions of yourself, low self-esteem, and a lack of confidence. It is in fact the <br>opposite, humility is having the self-esteem to understand that even though you are doing well, you do not have to brag or gloat about it.<br><br>It is important to stay humble because having humility not only helps you develop a more kind approach to interacting with others but it also influences how you perceive yourself and the world around you.<br>Humility helps one extend more&nbsp;compassion and&nbsp;empathy&nbsp;to others.<br><br>Most would consider humility the antonym of pride and may associate pride as being a bad trait to possess. Pride is the appreciation of <br>yourself and your beliefs, it is having&nbsp;confidence and assurance that you are an important and relevant contribution to this world.<br>However, if pride becomes extreme that is when humility is absent and a person may exhibit selfish or&nbsp;narcissistic behaviors.&#8221;<br>~ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellmind.com\/why-is-it-important-to-be-humble-5223266\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Tiara Blain<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color\" style=\"color:#308267;font-size:26px\">&#8220;Humility is the courage to go beyond one&#8217;s limits &#8211; it is what lifts us, makes us grow and expands our hearts. And it is only through it that we learn to truly love\u2026 <br><br>We can&#8217;t learn, practice or study humility &#8211; we must mature in life <br>itself before we have the opportunity to truly develop it. <br>Mindfulness, self-love, letting go, honesty, devotion, gratitude &#8211; all of these will ultimately lead to humility.&#8221;<br>~ Dorothee Teves<br><br>&#8220;Humility is the courage to descend into one&#8217;s depth and darkness.&#8221;<br>&#8221; Humility is not a goal, but a constant touchstone on this path &#8211; it asks and questions again and again: who are you &#8211; why do you do what you do?&#8221; <br>~ Benedictine Father Anselm Gr\u00fcn<br><br>&#8220;The attitude of humility frees us from false prestige; At the same time, however, it requires a healthy dose of self-confidence, because it is <br>often harder than you think to see and accept yourself as you are and not as you would like to be.&#8221; <br>~ Cistercians of the Abbey Seligenthal<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color\" style=\"color:#308267;font-size:26px\">&#8220;Humility is a virtue of the second half of life, in which it is about <br>letting go of the outward orientation, the striving for recognition and prestige; turning inward to listen to those voices of the unconscious that challenge the standards of the conscious.&#8221; <br>~ C.
