experienced I thought it connotated humiliation and embarrassment. However, I have been working with some Wayne Dyer material and I have

now learned another definition of humility. I now know humility. The

best description I can give you is transending ego and detaching

from self. If one truly has humitlity one is not at risk of

embarrasment or humilation. When I first tried to be humble I said, "you mean I have to stop having

things my way?" "I have to stop trying to be right even if I am right?" that is going to be tough. That is going to mean I am going to have to

How much energy do you invest in developing your natural abilities and skills? Would you rather be a leader or a follower? Leaders like winning and tend to think well of themselves. They influence others by what they do, rather then by what they say. Most of time, leaders also do right things. Followers like to look for anyone that will tell them what to do and carry them through life. They are never in a position of power and are not rewarded for their lack of leadership ability.

When you help others discover their abilities, and achieve greater success and happiness, you become better at what you do and add to your emotional prosperity. These qualities are power of leadership. Others are moved by your behavior and influence; this is ethics in action. Leaders are valuable in any organization. You are looked up to, able to make good decisions, and your strength to build on past successes is valuable.
