True Humility: Finding Peace and Balance in Today's Modern Society
True Humility: Finding Peace and Balance in Today's Modern Society

A grounded antidote to modern self-obsession

This feels like a sincere reset for anyone worn out by chasing happiness in all the usual places and still feeling empty. Gavin Seah blends personal struggle with practical reflection, so it reads less like preaching and more like someone gently helping you recalibrate. If you want a self-help book that leans on humility, peace, and emotional honesty rather than hype, this could really land well.

Description

2022 Book Excellence Award Winner — Self-Help Category. Foreword written by Jeremy Bloom, Olympic skier, NFL player, CEO, philanthropist and author. Praise for Gavin Seah's True Humility from Colin Schooling, director of The Schooling Company Pte Ltd and father of Singapore Olympic gold medalist Joseph Schooling; Krystle Rich, NBC Sports Philadelphia anchor and award-winning NFL Network producer and author; and Torrel Harris, chairman and CEO of Unique Sports Management International and father of Tobias Harris, Philadelphia 76ers NBA player. Gavin Seah's True Humility offers a modern pathway to finding real peace and balance in life. How often have you pursued peace through a YOLO mindset, happiness through wanderlust, or identity through social media, only to feel frustration, anxiety and depression? Like many people today, Gavin was a victim of self-centered behaviors, confronting a past marked by bullying, racism and ostracism. He shares personal stories, meaningful encounters, and practical tips to reclaim peace and balance through True Humility. In this uplifting book, you will learn how to: discern self-centered practices in modern society; analyze three core moral values that shape life; find real peace through True Humility; practice True Humility to create a positive impact; develop humble characteristics through relatable characters. If you are searching for your positive, happy self, this book can guide you back to the right path.
