Humility is rarely associated with intellectual aptitude or professional success in Western societies, especially in the United States.
Synonyms for Humility often include lowliness, meekness, and submissiveness—characteristics that would seem to be the antithesis of achievement and success.
Our definition of Humility comes from our study of it as a philosophical, intellectual virtue and psychological construct. We define Humility as a mindset about oneself that is open-minded, and selfless.
This enables one to embrace the world as it “is” in the pursuit of human excellence.
