Why Humble People Are Treasured

in #blog7 years ago

What kind of persons would you want as friends? A humble person or someone filled with pride? Recently, I have been in talks with so many people, trying to teach them how Steemit works. The major challenge I have encountered is meeting proud people. There's someone I was helping out on Steemit, as soon as he got his first good payout, he changed totally. He didn't want to listen to me again, he felt he was top of his game, he even called me names too. Why do you think humility is so valued? That's what I will be talking about today, try to stick around.

Humility is rare. Yeah, you read that right. It's difficult to find a humble person in the world we find ourselves today. So when you come across one, it's good you treasure him/her. The few ones that are humble easily stand out amongst crowds. Like the example I gave in the preceding paragraph, money tends to reveal someone. A person practicing false humility cannot hide it for long. False humility is still pride.

Being humble is greater than an act, it involves putting the needs of others ahead of ones need. Everyone loves to be cared for, and this is what humble people will definitely do. They will do this without expecting a reward or a repay of such act.

Most humble persons are good listeners too. Because they don't feel superior to another person, they tend to make others feel valued. They listen to the opinions of others and try to implement it if possible or needed. Ithe feels so good when you are talking to someone who truly listens without focusing on were you may possibly have made mistakes.

A humble person knows he has flaws so when see others errs, he isn't judgemental. A humble person will also acknowledge his faults when wrong and apologise. Sometimes they even apologise when they know they are correct for peace to reign. How do you feel when someone tells you sorry for your own mistake? This will make me feel bad about myself, I would not want such events to repeat itself. This makes humble people a welcome sight.

It takes some maturity to be humble, humble people try to act maturely in most situations. A mature person wouldn't act childishly when important topics are being discussed. No one likes someone who acts childishly all the time, this make humble persons to be loved.

Do you like humble people? If you do, why?

Your write up on humility is so detailed and so well-articulated that there seem not to be much that needs be added. You summed it up when you said, in addition to other qualities, 'Being humble is greater than an act, it involves putting the needs of others ahead of ones need. Everyone loves to be cared for, and this is what humble people will definitely do. They will do this without expecting a reward or a repay of such act.'

Why I like humble people? The reasons are simple: humble people are respectful, often diligent, not easily biased, and often are blessed with a beautiful mind and a caring heart. The actions or reactions of a humble person is not likely to embarrass you in public, even in private, because they often do not overreact to issues. Because they are good listeners oftentimes humble people have the tendency to be meticulous, methodical and focused.

I must end by thanking you for this instructive piece of wisdom.

Thanks for your heartfelt contribution, I really appreciate. Humility should be cultivated.

Hey yo @bleepcoin, thanks for coming around man.

A great theme, the bible says we should esteem others as superior to ourselves. that is to be humble. thanks for that message jaff8

Ooh my darling

God hears and responds to the humble.
Humility gets God’s attention.
God’s presence dwells with the humble
Isaiah 57:15,

For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy, I dwell in the high and Holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble and to revive the heart of the contrite ones

A religious view is also fine, thanks @odiaprecious for your addition.

Yes! I like humble people. They know what it is to value and be cool headed. They dont stress you out, they are people who can even make you a better person!

Thanks @omonosa, humility is a quality that is easily seen.

It's really disappointing to meet proud people.....no one in this world is 100%, that is what some ppl need to understand. Humility is a wonderful virtue and everyone loves a humble person. Thanks for bringing this to light @jaff8

Many persons tend to forget this,

no one in this world is 100%
