Ants Don't Strut | Assessing ourselves a bit
Channel: Jesse D
Date: 23/09/2014

In this video I muse about Humility. Let's call Humility: assessing ourselves honestly and then moving on to think about other things.

Along the way I have to talk about how cool Ants are and how their movement reminds me to be humble.

-Jesse D

*BONUS (paradoxical?) QUESTION: 
Compared to the people in your life, are you more humble or more arrogant?

1. Content. Could have spent more time outlining the ways that arrogance can push away good people and good ideas, and contrasted that with the benefits of humility.
