"Although too much modesty can eat away at self-esteem, a healthy dose is considered an attractive trait by many.

At the same time, you need to be careful not to cross the line from modesty to self-deprecation. Here are five tips to make modesty work for you:

  • Accept compliments graciously
  • Recognize when you've achieved something important rather than downplaying these things as due to "luck"
  • Stand up for yourself if you feel you are being taken advantage of (read up on being assertive)
  • Offer praise to others (this might feel strange at first, as though you don't have the "right" to decide what is good or bad
  • Be realistic rather than thinking things are all good or all bad."
