• The barriers to humility
1. We need a new paradigm in the way we
think
The barriers to v.humility

“We must see the difference between
choosing to serve, and choosing to be a
servant. When we choose to serve, we
are still in charge. We decide whom we
will serve and when we will serve. But
when we choose to be a servant, we
give up the right to be in charge”
