On a scale of 1 to 10 how much humble would you rate yourself?

Question

0 = ideal stage
10 = absolute pride, snobbishness

Your TEST PARAMETER is: if someone falsely accuses you of betrayal, dishonesty, etc. basically any framed implication that can make you insecure and cause you to lose face - and if you are able to defend yourself without the need of retaliation, name-calling, or bringing down the opponent.

This I read in Taoism - ancient Chinese philosophy

Answer 1

I feel I am a 1. I follow a similar path.
My neighbor had falsely accused me of terrible things, resorted to name calling and violence and lying and cheating. I felt that by being honest and true to myself, the truth would clear me.
It was very hard to do, the urge to get down in the mud with that trailer park trollop was on me, but I fought it off and let her act like the garbage she was. I had to practically tie my hubby to a tree so he wouldn't retaliate.
In the end, she showed everyone and the police just what she was made of and I was exonerated.

Answer 8

I would say a 5 because I have low self confidence because i feel O don't always look as good as alot of people, but I do see myself better than quite a few people in some ways like my attitude, intelligence and such. Weird huh.

Answer 9

By my "test parameter", 0. By any other definition of humility, 10+

I'm incredibly arrogant, but I don't believe in retaliation, name-calling, or bringing down the opponent in an argument. There's no need when they are already cowering in my presence.

Answer 10

I'm a 10 !! i cant stand being accused even if i have done something wrong !!! i will argue to the bitter end i wont be the first to step down or be reasonable this is just the way i am !
