I guess you're right… totally “fake” modesty even more annoying… when someone really does think they are better than everyone else and exudes it with every fiber of their being… but makes an artificial statement to the contrary.However,The kind of humility that I find most moving is the authentic kind, when you do not need to fake it. It's hard to step away from the ego, for anyone, but to recognize that they've accepted humility into their life and still know their self-worth…ah,Also black Gucci work great with jeans, and give a very casual, or rugged look, that is so refreshing.However, I disagree that “fake” modesty is refreshing. The kind of humility that I find most moving is the authentic kind, when you do not need to fake it. It's hard to step away from the ego, for anyone, but to recognize that they've accepted humility into their life and still know their self-worth…ah, that is so refreshing.Christian Louboutin shoes look fantastic with tight-legged jeans tucked into them, or with short skirts paired with opaque tights or bare legs.

Brett, that definitely makes sense but you can't know if he is uninterested just because the project is elementary. He has to know that HE at one time was at that elementary space and the mentors and leaders in the field, helped him to get where he is now.

So in that, even if it's not flooring to him just by showing a little interest and help is humility and at that point, his level of interest isn't as important but that he showed the initial ability to listen and be there.

but there's a kind of person who is very strong but also polite and encouraging to others.

There's a guy I read who is a world-class genius in his field. He's probably smarter than 99% of the people who flock around him. Still, he sometimes says very modest things like "Well, there's a lot of people know far, far more about this other aspect of it than I do" or he'll be encouraging to someone working on a project that's probably quite elementary to him... and I can tell he's just trying to be a nice guy and isn't as interested as he comes across.

But I think that's just being polite and genuine humility, not "fake."

Brett, I'm sorry about your accident (I heard about it via Twitter). Interesting when you lose a sense or certain capability, what it might heighten in the interim.

However, I disagree that "fake" modesty is refreshing. The kind of humility that I find most moving is the authentic kind, when you do not need to fake it. It's hard to step away from the ego, for anyone, but to recognize that they've accepted humility into their life and still know their self-worth...ah, that is so refreshing.

Thanks for the thoughts, Brett and I hope your voice and recovery is speedy.
