Philippians 2:3 NLT - "Don't be selfish; don't try to impress others.  Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves."

Do you want to "get ahead?"  Try getting behind everyone to do so!  In other words, help others "get ahead" and rejoice when they do.  God is pleased with that humility.  And note James 4:10 - "Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up."  A Christian psychologist once said, "A mark of a mature Christian is when they can rejoice in the success of another as more important than rejoicing in their own success."
