Simplified Meaning:

Thinking about this quote, it's saying that humility doesn't mean you should think you're not good or important. Instead, it means you should focus less on yourself and more on others. For instance, imagine you’re part of a team working on a project. Instead of always trying to show you're the best or worrying if others notice your hard work, you help your teammates, listen to their ideas, and support their efforts. When you act this way, people tend to respect and appreciate you more because you're not always seeking attention or praise. By thinking of yourself less often, you free up energy and mind space to be supportive and kind, creating a better environment for everyone. So, in your daily life, try to be more aware of others’ needs and contribute to group efforts without always seeking validation or credit. This approach helps build stronger relationships and can lead to greater personal satisfaction.
