There is only one way to know for sure(how to know if you are proud). Even if it's true there is good news, the good news is that we can completely get rid of this bad habit. How??

The best way to get rid of a bad habit is to replace it with a good one so we are replacing pride with a beautiful quality called humility.

First of all, 

Who is a humble person 

Humble people are happy, content and most of all satisfied with their lives. They value themselves and at the same time they put others needs before their own. They find joy in celebrating other's and usually avoid being the center of attention. 

To be humble means so many things including; not buying all the expensive stuff just so the the neighbor next door will notice you. It especially means accepting and making amends for your wrongs.

How To Be Humble 

Do you want to become a humble person?

Let's get to unveiling the 7 secrets right before your eyes....

Be nice

When you walk into the room smile and greet your desk mate, say the magic words please and thank you regularly in your daily conversations even if the person is younger than you or of a lower " class" than you. Treating them the way you would like to be treated will reduce the tension in the air and be a great plus in your humility journey.

Have a balanced view of yourself 

How do you view yourself? List some of your weaknesses? What do you talk about? Take some time to describe yourself. Are you the person of your dreams? If not then,  build yourself to be the nice loving person you would want as a friend.

Listen

 Everyone has something to say regardless of their age or position they just need the chance. So, pay attention to every word that comes out of each person's mouth no matter their age or position, don't just sit spaced out or waiting for your turn to speak. Listen attentively like everything they are saying really matters.

A word 

Success comes through many advisors and the best advice can come from unexpected places.

Learn something new

Humbly raise your hand and ask a question when you don't understand or go to that nerd by the corner and plead for their help instead of bullying them. Honestly, being willing to sit and learn from someone anything that you have no idea on  is the greatest display of humility there is.

On that note I'll like to congratulate you for taking this first step to humility (reading this article) your doing great already.

Apologize 

Three words as simple as "I am sorry" are so rare to hear these days eventhough they are the key to preventing further arguments and future resentment. Even when you do something as small as accidentally smashing another persons foot, apologizing quickly saves you from a quarrel.

 Show gratitude  

During the day or at the end of the day find something to be thankful for, not just something you did but some things others did that made things easier for you like your morning coffee, your taxi ride or even just a clean office. No matter how small their contribution was, it was still a contribution and they deserve the credit.

A word 

Looking at the good things others can do and have done will help you see them as human and will help you appreciate their presence more.

Think about it 

Think about some situations that can make you give in to pride and write a plan of action, this should contain exactly what you would say or do in that situation. Identify some things that you used to do that made you less humble and Change your reactions. 

You will get there step-by-step
