So I finally figured out what’s great about this. Getting knocked on my ass has made me humble as hell. It’s been years since I called for help. It’s been years since I was open to advice.*

Hierarchy is not just what we do, it is who we are.**
Matthew Syed

Humility is a choice in a
world of hierarchies,^ to
see ourselves and to see
others more accurately, not only
as we are, but as we may
become, meaning humility is not
about decrease but increase.

**Matthew Syed’s Rebel Ideas;
^Matthew Syed describes two sorts of hierarchies: dominance and privilege – humility is alive and well in the latter.
