Avoid Showing Off And Experience Humility

Avoid Showing Off And Experience Humility
Journey

In an identity-addicted world, we like to draw attention of people to ourselves, our achievements, possessions and status. We show off, self-promote and seek people’s compliments. It is one thing to own all the luxury and earn high status, but it is completely another thing to boast about them. Boasting speaks the language of winners and losers. Modesty speaks the language of humility and equality.

  1. 1Although you want to be modest or humble, you need to check if you are applying it in your daily life. Moreover, watching other people showing off successful aspects of their life on social media may be tempting for you to do the same.
  2. 2To strengthen modesty, begin by respecting everything in your life - people, animal, plants, objects. Appreciate that none is more important than the other. Show equal gratitude and care for all of them.
  3. 3Value all resources and use them in moderation, whether it is water, electricity, money, food, clothes. Separate your needs and wants. Strive to fulfil your needs and live comfortably. Show control over your unending wants or desires.
  4. 4Modesty does not mean you overlook success or give up comforts. Acknowledge your strengths and successes, be confident, but do not show off. Do your best and remain humble, giving credit wherever it is due. Offer all your success and recognition to God, do not consume it and become egoistic.
