Humility_Is_Attractive_Quality

Humility is a very attractive quality. It means staying confident and poised while putting away arrogance and boastfulness as we achieve our goals. When the humble person accomplishes bigger career opportunities and more wealth, they can still maintain a modest attitude and not see themselves as superior to others. The humble person is not: •Arrogant •Egotistical •Self-absorbed •Conceited •Acting Superior •Aggressive A humble character is a vital component for achieving success in all areas of life. It is an unspoken inner strength that doesn’t require the need for praise. It should not be mistaken for shyness or introversion. The humble person appears cool and confident as they work to achieve, never boastful but good-naturedly moving forward.

For example in politic, they are in competition for who to lead the country, in economy for who to have the most develop business, even in culture & arts is a competition for who to be the best artist and so on.
