Thought for the Day - What is Humility? As we enter into the Christmas season, To-Do lists grow, schedules get full and the amount of pressure on people/families tend to reach all-time highs. It is also a great opportunity to reflect on what goals have been accomplished and which ones havent that were made at the beginning of the year. But unfortunately with all the hustle and bustle it is easy to lose focus on the Reason for the Season...the remembrance of the birth of Jesus. Jesus was the ultimate example for TRUE HUMILITY. During this time I like to take stock in how I am measuring up, to become more humble and less self absorbed. I would like to say I am further along but I have blown it many times. I love this definition from John Maxwell on what Humility is that can easily be applied in business and our personal lives... Humility is a true recognition of our strengths and our weaknesses and then a willingness to be secure enough to admit our weaknesses and allow other people to come alongside of us. Because a humble person is one, who seeks other peoples advice, their help, asks questions and understands as my friend John Wooden one time said, its what you learn after you know it all that counts. John Maxwell. You can listen to the rest of the Minute with Maxwell johnmaxwellteam/humble/
