Always reach for the clouds BUT keep your feet on the ground. Remember where you came from, be grateful and never act all pompous. Don't look down on others or be sanctimonious. Don't ignore or forget what some people have to live with... poverty, lacking sanitation, war zones, starvation, torture etc. Don't get caught up in materialistic things and possessions. Put PEOPLE and their FEELING first.

The best way to become humble is through knowing more and more. the more you know, the more you realise that how little is what you know. Then, naturally, you become very humble.

As you go through life, take only memories, leave only footprints.
Never ask for more than you need to live and always give freely of any extra to those in need.
If you have skills, share them and teach them. If you need skills, learn them.

Be modest and understanding.Don't brag about successes.Never be condescending or patronising.Treat everyone with respect and remember we are all equal in this big world no matter what your social status is.

Treat everybody as you would like to be treated yourself and realise that no one person is any better than any other regardless of their social status.

Think of others first and act with compassion.

just always say this to your self
"it is far more impressive when other discover your good qualities without your help"

do you really need that? being humble only makes your life and relationships more complicated.

Just keep 'doffing' you cap, or tugging your for-lock while continually saying thank you!

When you win, say nothing. When you lose, say less.
