The world can be brutal today – public figures talking trash and not holding back to be considerate of feelings or previous social norms.  This can be very upsetting for young people getting mixed messages.

Former Mayo Clinic professor of medicine Amit Sood says humility is not a lack of confidence, but a quiet, grounded strength that fosters deep connection.  Humility allows us to step outside the “ego-trap” of constant self-evaluation, creating space for curiosity and compassion toward others. By recognizing our own limitations and the vastness of the world around us, we reduce our internal stress and open ourselves up to genuine growth and learning.

Humility is what may be missing these days yet it remains the ultimate tool for emotional freedom:

“Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it is thinking of yourself less; it is the transition from ‘What about me?’ to ‘How can I serve?'”
