Many people think humility is about being extremely small or not thinking much of oneself, but in my mind, humility is about being the right size in a given situation.
There are two ditches we can fall into. One side is self-aggrandizement, which most people want to avoid. The other side is self-deprecation or being too small in a given situation. Humility is the Aristotelian golden mean between those ditches. It’s being the right size in a given situation.
Other aspects of humility include:
~ the ability to know ourselves, to have an accurate view of who we are
~ to check our selfish motivations and to reel in our defensiveness, and
~ to go beyond ourselves, to consider the well-being of someone else as equal to our own.
This is how humility is an antidote to narcissism: it reels us back in from this over-inflated sense of self to making us just the right size.

"Consider “do-nothing farming” (a.k.a. “the Fukuoka Method,” named for the Japanese farmer and philosopher who developed it), which recognizes a natural intelligence at work in the land, emphasizing minimal human intervention and allowing the ecosystem to balance itself and improve soil health naturally."

I just got this book from library and skipped right to the final chapter (was that arrogant? lacking humility? dunno I already am in this camp) -- killer conclusion!
Hope, Humility!
