Day 14 - Humility

Humility is the practice of being humble, mild mannered and thoughtful. Making mistakes is part of learning and growing. Today, remember at least one mistake you have made and reflect on what you have learned from it.

Reflection
  • Why is humility a good characteristic to have and to practice each day?
  • What role does humility play in our causes for justice and building community?
Action
  • Write about a mistake you made, what you learned from it and how you do things differently now.
  • Make a list of 2-3 ways you can practice humility.
  • Practice at least one of them today.
"All streams flow to the ocean because it is lower than they are. Humility gives it its power."
Lao Tzu
"Pride is concerned with who is right. Humility is concerned with what is right."
Ezra T. Benson
"There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self."
Ernest Hemingway
“Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking of yourself less.”
C.S. Lewis
“There is beauty and humility in imperfection.”
Guillermo del Toro
