Sometimes humility means being able to say: “Maybe I'm wrong.”

2. Why can it be difficult to admit that our first interpretation was wrong?
“Being confident doesn't mean being certain that you're always right.”
The Power of Humility - The Spoken Word by The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square
The world in which we live is fiercely competitive—some would even say ruthless. The pressure to succeed, to get ahead, leads many to be aggressive, dominating, overpowering. And succeed they often do—in a sense. But there’s a different, even a better way to live and to succeed. It is, in a word, humility.
Piper by Pixar
I don't know everything. I can learn from experience and from others.
Humility means being willing to learn, even when we think we already know how to do something.
1. What did the character learn that it couldn't have learned by simply staying where it was?
2. Who is someone you have learned from recently?
For the Birds by Pixar
Humility means recognising that other people are not less valuable because they are different from us.
1. What made the birds believe they were better than the other bird?
2. What happens in a group when people start deciding who belongs and who doesn't?
“Someone else's difference doesn't make us superior.”
