In college one of my classmates shared an insight with me:
“True humility is the ability to learn something from anyone.”
In other words, I should not be limited to learning only from those I agree with, look up to, have a lot in common with, or like to be around.
I should be willing to learn whatever I can from whoever I can, whenever I can. After all, God has the copyright on truth and wisdom regardless of who might be plagiarizing it at any given moment.

My life and leadership are greatly enriched when I approach all my encounters with a type of expectation:
I can learn something from anyone… what does God want to teach me through this person or experience-right here, right now?
