Humble Pie

OKAY work has been really busy the past couple of days so I haven’t had time to blog while here!

 

I meditated over the weekend and decided that HUMBLE will be my word for March.

 

Not that I don’t think I am already humble, but I don’t think I have a full understanding for the word.

 

hum·ble

adjective

1.having or showing a modest or low estimate of one's own importance.

synonyms: meek, deferential, respectful

 

I pulled up this article on Forbes about 13 Habits of Humble People

 

They’re Situationally Aware

I pride myself on my emotional intelligence, I can usually just feel people out even if we aren’t in the same physical space.

 

They Retain Relationships

Yeah.. need to dig more on this and do more work… not a strong point for me.

 

They Put Others First

“Humble people know their self-worth. As a result, they don’t feel the need to cast themselves before others just to show them how much they know. Instead, humble people realize that nobody cares how much they know until those people know how much they’re cared for.”

 

They Listen

I could do better with listening, for sure.

 

They’re Curious

Yes, I have this one down pat.

 

They Speak Their Minds

Yes

 

They Take Time To Say “Thank You”

I was just raised this way so it comes naturally, almost always.

 

They Have An Abundance Mentality

I have started working on this recently. I think it has come with knowing myself more and growing up and into who I want to be.

 

They Start Sentences with “You” Rather Than “I”

Humble people brag about others, while the prideful brag about themselves.

Hmm.. I could use work in that area I am sure.
