Being humble

Being humble has all the advantages that you can think of.
In the first place, people like to be with you because you are not arrogant. Secondly, you can learn from others because people usually like to teach you something that they assume you don't know because you don't show it. Thirdly, you have the virtue many people like to possess but fail to acquire because they can't resist the temptation to show off what they know. Fourthly, you can avoid many clashes with others.
