Educate others with humility.

A professional ought to educate those who are under the development of knowledge with humility and honesty, though he or she is an expert; he or she must stay meek despite the fact that he or she is an intelligent person.  The fact that someone is clever does not mean he or she should not be humble and submissive, because intelligence is a gift that can be taken away by the Giver if the person refuses to humble him or herself and instead continues to brag about his or her accomplishments. The fact that you are a professional does not imply that you should disrespect your elders.  Boasting about your professional status can unexpectedly lead to a novice-like demeanor.  Indeed, the act of boasting can inconspicuously strip away the pretenses of your boasts.  The Scriptures also emphasize in Matthew Chapter Twenty-three Verse Twelve that those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.

What have you achieved today?

Not only students should reflect on their daily accomplishments by asking, “What have we achieved today?”  As lifelong learners, we acquire new knowledge every day.  Each day presents an opportunity to learn something new, prompting us to ask ourselves, “What have I achieved today?”  Learning is a universal pursuit that extends beyond the student population; it is essential for everyone.  It is worth noting that we can only impart knowledge that we possess, not what we lack.  Similarly, we can only share what we have, not what we do not have.  Let us strive to dedicate ourselves to continuous learning, ensuring that we expand our existing knowledge base every day.

Be cautious!

Let's exercise caution in our responses to elderly individuals.  You must be mindful of how your words are perceived by those who are older.  Sometimes, the intended meaning behind your words to elderly individuals might be misconstrued as they ponder over your response. They may assume you are mockery of them, potentially prompting them to contemplate retaliation,  unaware that they are misinterpreting the situation.  At times, it is essential to carefully consider your thoughts before reacting to individuals of advanced age.  Caution is advised.

One good turn deserves another.

One good turn deserves another.  When people assist you in achieving your goal or in any way, acknowledge and express appreciation for their efforts, and let them know how much you value and cherish them.

Be humble and acquire more knowledge, instead of boasting of the limited knowledge you possess.

Some individuals consistently seek to justify their actions, even when they are mistaken.  You don't need to argue with those correcting you.  Acknowledge your mistakes, pay attention and allow them to correct you.  By doing so, you'll acquire more new knowledge. Sometimes, as an adept that you are, you ought to position yourself as an amateur in order to acquire more knowledge.  Experts do not argue but rather make peace so that they may add to their understanding; they do not argue but instead keep silent in order to further illuminate their insights. Instead of boasting of the limited knowledge you possess, remain humble and pursue additional knowledge to ensure you are thoroughly educated on various new topics. Written by: Monday K.

Be understandable.

Be understandable.  The fact that someone assists you today does not necessarily mean that the fellow will be able to help you tomorrow.
