Do you consider yourself to be humble?

Depends on the subject.

If I'm good at what I do, then I will have no qualms in telling you that I am very good at what I do.

If I am not good at what I do, then I will hold no delusions, I will openly tell you I am not good at what I do.

Humble? Hardly. I'd prefer the term self aware. I know my weaknesses and my strengths and I play this game of life using both to the best of my ability. I am proud of a great many things and I see no point in hiding triumphs for the sake of modesty.

[Jxpxtxr]

It depends on what area of life.
I have certain skills that I'm proud of though and hence don't see why I should undermine those just so others can feel better about themselves.

Just kidding. I just wanted to say that. 😂😂

[doobie345621]

A truly humble person will never admit they are humble.

[Aizou]

Good answer.

[anonman32]

inst that self denial?

[AleDeEurope]

That's not true. Just because you're being honest doesn't mean you're not being humble.

[doobie345621]

@AleDeEurope but someone who's humble usually doesn't see themselves as so, from my experience.

[AleDeEurope]

But say for example you're a great football player, you obviously know that. You have to deny being good just to appear humble? That would be lying.
That's like Stephen Hawkins saying he's not that good of a scientist.

@AleDeEurope Let me try and explain, using your own explanation.

A good football player knows that he's good, yes. But saying so would make him appear arrogant and cocky.(honest yes, but still) Denying that he's good would be lying to not only those around him, but himself as well.. so what is one to do?
"I'm just doing my best where I can." "We're all good at something." And so on.

A proverb goes: Humility is not thinking less of yourself; but thinking of yourself less.

[doobie345621]

Exactly, so instead of saying "I'm the best football player !" or " I'm so good no one can beat me" they would say something more like "There are many people with just as much talent as I have!" or "Every person on this team plays an important role." It's a mentality, a way of being, just like how you make no effort to be yourself, humble people just are. As are vain people and so on. I believe you're born humble or after many difficult tribulations throughout a lifetime you may grow to be.

[AleDeEurope]

I am humble, but apparently some people think I'm not when I'm just being honest... oh well :P
xD

I don't know your accomplishments but I'm sure it's nothing significant. Einstein once said, "I'm not smart, just passionately curious". coming from a guy who developed the quantum theory of specific heat and had an iq over 160

[chintita]

i'm aware of my abilities and appreciate what i have

[oldanddecrepid]

I have been told that I am one of the most humble people there is.

[Giacomanzo]

"I am humble" is the least humble thing you could ever say. If someone is humble, it means he/she doesn't like to brag.

[Anonymous]

I try to have a realistic assessment of myself, that's humble enough for the most part.

[Melcart23]

I'm so humble that a lot of the time, I sell myself short

[justbanANNAz]

At times yes, most times im just neutral.

[skeptic007]

[palek]

It's practically my middle name!

[Bowshots86]

I'm not as humble as I should be

[PurestOfThePure]

No, but still i'm trying the best being neutral

[sparkly-crystal]

I try to refrain from being arrogant so yes.

[Humping_Tornadoes]

For the most part, yes.

[takumii]

I am mostly arrogant, but I AM HUMBLE.

[Iron_Man]
