You really are not unstoppable as you think you are and you are not as amazing in the eyes of others are you may think.
Arrogance just like lack of confidence is fixated on what others may think or in the least bit, manipulating others so that they think of us what we pretend to think of ourselves.
I am not one thing. I am a collection of different attributes and qualities. Most of all, I am adaptable. Arrogance is stagnant, it’s stuck, it remains.
Being able to say ‘I’m sorry, yes it was me, yes that was my fault, i could do better’ sets one of a more adaptable and humble path.
The humble one who can be exceptionally brilliant but incredibly lowly about it triumphs over the one who is secretly mediocre but flaunts as if they are unstoppable. 2 weeks ago
...I don’t like my body very much, I hate my handwriting etcetera, but I tested in the top 2% of the population at least, and had the reading level of an adult by the age of eight. I know my appearance is average, so it took me a while to notice that sometimes when people said things I didn’t care to hear I would think, almost subconsciously, “I’m smarter than you.” 10 months ago

i’ve just left high school and throughout the past two years several teachers commented on how cocky i am. i’ve always been confident but there’s a thin line between being self-confident and being an arrogant know-it-all. at times i have found this line. i need to cross it permanently and never look back. i don’t even realise when i am being arrogant so maybe i need to take more notice of what is coming out of my mouth. or my body language, because hey, maybe standing there with my hands on my hips isn’t 100% ‘approachable’.
my catchphrase is ‘i’m not being arrogant, but i am better than you’. just kidding. i’m not that bad. hopefully. 22 months ago

There are enough ignorant people in the world. Why in all of my good graces should I even dare deprive the world of my certainty?
I know better than to do such a silly thing.
We, the people, should cling to our wits as though it were the very sands of time, as with our age no new neurons grow or develop post birth.

My Mentor has pointed this out to me on numerous occasions, and while I believe I have improved, I know I have a long way to go. It isn’t something I do consciously, but I do acknowledge that I come across as arrogant often. Sometimes it’s word choice or tone, but it is an undesirable trait and one I want to control. 4 years ago
If you find people around you are always messed up with trivial things, what do you think.It’s pretty hard for you to find common words with them. I find it’s wasting time to talk dreams, goals to them.I don’t understand why people like wasting time on things that cannot help them find the meanings of life. They are all surrendered to reality.They have no wonderful dreams.
I really wanna be less arrogant.But it seems that I need help. 6 years ago
