Intellectual Humility...

 

An Intellectual humility is a quality that ought to be cultivated by every student who desires to learn and grow in life. Humility is not all about humbling oneself before others. It also means putting oneself at the disposal of others to create an ambience to an academic excellence. Well, how does it happen? It happens, when a student has a doubt or needs a better clarification he/she must be humble enough to ask others and thus get to learn. For, learning from others is in no way a shameful thing rather is a good thing to approach others to get things learned. This attitude paves a way for leadership qualities and makes one confident and social. Proximity is all about social learning and social engineering creating a good atmosphere for others in mutual sharing. Therefore, it is a pre-requisite for every diligent student who aspires to go, grow and glow. It is an academic attitude that broadens the mind of a student to other cultures, faiths and languages. Besides, it enables a student to better understand and appreciate the differences regardless of region, race and age. It is a human aptitude that draws each other to share and care as brothers and sisters. Particularly, as students of philosophy it is an indispensable virtue to be inculcated. If we have this virtue, be sure, we become a better version of ourselves while learning to unlearn and unlearn to learn the ropes. After all, life is all about learning. Thus keep the flag ever high as if the sky is your limit in pursuit of Knowledge and wisdom.
