Humanity as you have stated is "very much over-rated". Yes as children we are taught to be model children which is not what children are really about. They are about expressing themselves regardless of what others think they should do. Being confident as children should in many respects make us confident adults, however, too much is really stacked against us as adults, when you shovel through the crap, stand up for yourself, believe in yourself there will always be others out there who try and knock you down. Self confidence is what makes people successful regardless of what others think of them and for anyone like that out there Piya go for it.

As a woman humility gets me nowhere. Women are much more likely to be required to be humble and modest, a factor which has kept us 'in our place' for too long. It's time for us to be all that we are and to do so with pride. Claudia Hi Piya, love your article. As a woman humility gets me nowhere.

Your definition is one that is positive i.e. explaining what you mean instead of the habit of explaining something by saying what it is not. For that I say cheers! Have you seen on Youtube/Ted.org the piece by Brene Brown call 'Shame'? What are your thoughts on that? Erik Hi Piya,
