Cool!
Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

I would only recommend changing the second Humble bullet to say, "I can" instead of "I'm"

It gives a slightly stronger connotation.

Thanks for the suggestion, B10, though I decided to change Humbleness #2 to hit home my overall complaint about New Age: the goal is to fool oneself.

Also I consciously used I/me/my on the arrogance side vs we/us/our on the humbleness side.
