Stay Humble. Stay Teachable.

humble

If you have all the answers, you do not know all the questions.

I have learned over the years that those who go about life with the perception that they know everything either have a pride problem or are limited in knowledge. Even if you consider yourself the smartest person alive, there is still something you do not know. So a general advice is to stay humble and stay teachable. Open yourself to learning new things everyday irrespective of who you learn from. Jesus Christ nicely summarizes it in Luke’s Gospel.

If you put yourself above others, you will be put down. But if you humble yourself, you will be honored. Luke 14:11.
