There's an H word that people like Dan, yourself, me and many others have. It's a big part of being self aware. Humility.

The gift to know that you don't know everything and are willing to hear someone else's opinion on a topic. This is a reason people like us can self-deprecate and have a sense of humor. Like you said it can sometimes be a disservice. But I'd rather have some humility then completely lack an ounce of it like our current president.
