Without humility, greatness ends or is never reached to begin with. With humility, greatness can be active &  ongoing. In our next Raising an Ace video, Mariam & I discuss humble mindsets to instill in Ace as he grows up & how these mindsets can ignite his leadership too. Check it out:

(00:32) – Confidence & Humility Intersection (01:12) – Social Attraction Importance (02:02) – Indefinite Improvement (03:05) – Elevate the Opposition (04:12) – No Sugar-coating (05:17) – Erase Stigma of Weaknesses (05:45) – Praising Vulnerability (06:07) – Compete with Yourself (06:23) – Eyes Level with People (07:20) – Uplift Others (08:00) – Embody Ubuntu Mentality (08:48) – Leadership Requires Humility (09:22) – Help Wanted: Real Leaders (10:23)

Humility is about humbling yourself day in and day out. This includes strengthening your strengths and also improving weaknesses. A person can always know more, do more, and be more when it comes to every positive action & attribute you can think of. When someone stays humble, they adopt an indefinite self-development attitude. When this complements a down to earth & level-headed attitude, true impact can be created. A person is then mentally in the position to uplift others and use their humble perspective for the greater good. Humility’s impact can compound exponentially when a healthy dose of confidence is added to it – Or vice versa. No-one will follow a confident leader who is not humble, and no-one will follow a humble leader who is not confident. In our current challenging times with the coronavirus expanding, real leaders are needed more than ever. So, it is up to us as parents to raise the next generation effectively from a confidence + humility standpoint so the world is not absent of real leaders down the road but instead is overflowing with them. To the parents out there: Let’s get to it!

Peace, Love, & Humility!
