How to be humble visit http://www.wikihow.com/Be-Humble

Part One: Accepting Your
Limitations
1
Admit that you're not the best at everything -- or anything . No matter how talented you are, there is
almost always somebody who can do something better than you. Look to those who are better and consider the
potential for improvement. Even if you are the best in the world at doing one thing, there are always other things that you cannot do, and may never be able to do. Recognizing your limitations does not mean abandoning your dreams, and it does not mean giving up on learning new things or improving your existing abilities.
2
Recognize your own faults . We judge others because it's a lot easier than looking at ourselves. Unfortunately, it's also completely unproductive and, in many cases, harmful. Judging others causes strife in relationships , and it prevents new relationships from forming. Perhaps even worse, it prevents us from trying to improve ourselves. We make judgments about others all the time, usually without even realizing it. As a practical exercise, try to catch yourself in the act of judging another person or group of people, and whenever you do, judge yourself instead. Consider how you can improve yourself. Work to address your flaws. Remember that growth and improvement is a lifelong process.
3
Be grateful for what you have. Suppose you graduate from an Ivy League university at the top of your class. You definitely deserve a lot of credit for the many hours of studying and for your perseverance. Consider though, that there is someone just as intelligent and hardworking as you who had less supportive parents, grew up in a different place, or just made one wrong choice in life. You could be in their positioninstead. Always remember that with a bad choice yesterday,
your whole life could be different today and, furthermore, that today could be the day your good choices changes your life. Though you have undoubtedly worked hard for what you have, don't think that you've "earned" it all and that you have the right to brag about your achievements.
4
Don't be afraid to make mistakes . Part of being humble is understanding that you will make mistakes . Understand this, and understand that everyone else makes mistakes, and you will have a heavy burden lifted off of you. Any one person can know only the smallest bits and pieces of the tremendous knowledge that has accumulated over the past. What's more, each person experiences only a sliver of the present, and knows little to nothing of the future.
5
And when you do make mistakes, admit to them . Notnbeing afraid to make mistakes is already a good move; it's even better, though, to admit to any mistakes you've made. Whether you've made a mistake as a boss, parent, or friend, people will appreciate the fact that you're willing to admit that you're not perfect and that you're working to improve yourself and the situation. Admitting your mistakes shows that you're not stubborn, selfish, or unwilling to not look perfect. Admitting your mistakes will make people respect you more, whether they are your own children or your coworkers.
6
Avoid bragging. Don't talk about how amazing your achievements are; if you're really so great, then other people will recognize your efforts and will praise you for them. Don't talk about your amazing promotion, the incredible painting you just finished, or how awesome it was that you just finished a marathon. Sure, these things are awesome, but braggin about them will only make you
look self-centered and will impress people much less than waiting for them to figure out how amazing you are. This doesn't mean you should lie about achieving something; if someone asked if you ran a marathon, say yes; but don't start going on and on about what a champion you are unprovoked.
7
Don't take all the credit.Sure, you baked an amazingsteak or completed acomplicated project at work; but did you really do it all by yourself? If so, then good for you, but chances are, someone else contributed to your success. So, when you're praised by someone, say, "I couldn't have done it without...." or "...helped out a lot, too." Don't talk on and on about how hard you worked all by yourself on completing the task. Share the love. There's nothing less humble than a person who takes all the credit for something he didn't do.
