Being Humble In A Healthy Way

A constant battle between right and wrong seems to occur all around us when we try to survive in this complex world. The problem is that we often can’t tell what is good or bad. Ethics play an important role in our lives, and yet we seem frozen when we are about to make serious decisions. If we unravel the truth from its very initial point, perhaps we will see the light at the end of the tunnel. We will be sure to use the same criteria regardless of the situation we have to face. Each time we will move on without having second thoughts about whether we do the right thing.
The main issue is whether we have to put ourselves first or whether others are a priority. In individualistic societies like the ones we live in today in the western world, it is ethical for someone to care for themselves. If you think about it, this is crucial because everyone has to be safe and healthy in the first place to care for others and help the group. So putting ourselves first is vital even when we care about others more. However, there is a limit to everything. We often use this rule to justify behaviors far from altruistic, claiming that we are being selfish just because we are basically wise.
On the other hand, is the choice of being humble the right way to go? Again it is not that simple. The idea is to understand where we have to place ourselves and where we have to place other people. There is nothing wrong with feeling that we are great and we deserve the best. This is a reality for everyone. Every personality has a glorious side to show off to the world, and everyone deserves the best. At the same time, this does not deprive others of the right to feel the same way about themselves and act similarly. To communicate with people while we are in this state of self-respect, one has to keep in mind one thing. While we are bright, beautiful, talented, etc., this also happens with other people. We all have a unique worth, and we are bright stars in the sky. At the same time, the people standing right next to us are also powerful and important personalities. For me to be unique, others do not have to be ”small.” We can all be important once we realize that we can be humble without being shy. We can be self-confident without being arrogant.
Selfishness is a tricky part of our lives and can come in many forms. It is practically what stands in the way of most of our relationships. It can basically take two different roads. The first one is to try to stand out and be better than others. This will help us have all eyes on us, which is what many people need to feel alive, not just important but also energetic. The second option comes when the first one fails. Not everyone can attract other people’s attention by being charismatic and useful. In this case, we turn on the last and easiest choice. ”If they cannot notice me because I am important, they will notice me because I suffer.” Here, the person brings themselves in a bad situation so that attention is gathered towards them. Not a very wise choice, one would say. There seems to be a certain pleasure when we put ourselves in the victim role, which is linked to two different things. First, we enjoy people’s attention and softness towards us. The second thing is that we do not have to struggle with anything. We can simply sit back in the comfortable role of the victim, where we do not have to do anything to make things better since we claim we are incapable of doing that.
We can be humble, and we can be confident. We will be able to make it only when we understand that we can’t be unique if we are not willing to embrace other people’s uniqueness as well.
