Does success need modesty?

Are all successful people modest? Have all humble people succeeded? Have you thought about this idea?

Before I share it with you, what do I think is the focus of this concept;
from

Humility [Dictionary] - Moderate or low view of the importance of oneself; humility. Or - modest, weak, modest or shameless.

Agree with any or all of these?

For various reasons, I don't always agree with the general dictionary definition of words, but we just say that these tendencies about humility mean weaknesses. I have never regarded humility as weakness but power. What about you?

Since this definition and your definition are the basis for the following, we don't have to be on the same page, but we need to be open and accepting different perspectives.

For me, modesty is a symbol of strength, just because it is necessary to demonstrate it when external pressure comes from others, internal pressures that need to adapt and belong, and social pressures that do not show weakness.

Remember, when what you represent is right, noble, or based on truth and principles, I am not referring to humility here as retreating, yielding, or any other form of comfort or concession. I am not saying that we should give up no matter what the circumstances. What I am suggesting is that being able to be strong and not letting your self, arrogance, and so-called intellectual takeover, for whatever reason, shows that we have the ability to accept the test of failure, adversity or patience, wisdom and common sense. We have the ability to know when to fight back and when to give up the need for strength.

Ok, now I hope I can go back to the title.

Is humility a part of true success or is it necessary? Notice that I added the word "real" to the question.

Success - [dictionary] achievement purpose or purpose. it is good. How is the definition of the self-service industry - this is the journey, not the destination. it is good. this is mine -

The direction of life [outcomes] you want to achieve and as your journey progresses, you will complete the required and established benchmarks in the process.

Yes, there are more successes besides my definition above, but for the sake of brevity, I keep it short.

So, given these two definitions, what is your answer to the above question? Are all successful people modest? Have all humble people succeeded?

Let's take the first one first.

During my global speaking career, I met hundreds of successful people from all walks of life who have been very successful in finance, reputation, power and influence, but lacked any degree of humility for various reasons.

Yes, I have also seen many people with all the above results and traits, as well as modesty as a major part of their personality and style.

Therefore, from the personal experience, the answer to the first question is - no.

The second question?

If I use the same criteria as above, I will get the same result. Some modest people are successful, others are not.

"So, Tim, what is the focus of this article. It seems that modesty is not a trait that needs to be considered to be successful."

Yes, if you only consider the above characteristics I mentioned, you are right. But if we add something to happiness, inner peace, satisfaction, life legacy and some other legacy - the results will change dramatically.

Just because you have fame, power, influence and wealth can't and should not [in my opinion] be the only factor to consider and define success.

How about morality and integrity? How about charity and generosity? How is the spiritual value?

Want to prove - according to the first set of standards, hundreds of highly successful people - suicide, eventually imprisoned, spent several years in a mental hospital, and ended their lives in pain, sadness, loss and ridicule .

They are successful - of course. It's worth it - who knows, or only time will tell you.

Let me end this dia with a simple idea - as your life progresses, you would rather end with fun, happiness and good memories, or those that make you feel stressed, painful, uncertain and with what you love or know The person who lost the memory of the connection?

I am not suggesting that it is impossible to have all the positive factors. So, decide - what do you want your path to be - full of all positive and negative, or just all positive factors?
