: People with a
teachable spirit are able to learn from their mistakes and grow to become better. People without a teachable spirit are always defending themselves, and blaming circumstances or others for their failures. If you do not have a teachable spirit, you will constantly wonder why you are being picked on, persecuted… or avoided. In fact, if you regularly feel picked on or persecuted, it could be a sign that you do NOT have a teachable spirit.
