I might never get there!

Humility:
To speak as little as possible of oneself.
To mind one's own business.
Not to want to manage other people's affairs.
To avoid curiosity.
To accept contradiction and correction cheerfully.
To pass over the mistakes of others.
To accept insults and injuries.
To accept being slighted, forgotten, and disliked.
Not to seek to be specially loved and admired.
To be kind and gentle even under provocation.
Never to stand on one's dignity.
To yield in discussion even though one is right.
To choose always the hardest.

Mother Teresa
