Arrogance and Confidence:
"True arrogance
is the belief that you have nothing left to learn, while true confidence is the
belief that you can help others to learn as you say continue learning yourself." - Alan Weiss
Yes this is exactly it.
Yes this is exactly it.
As long as we're playing the definition game . Simply we can
say confidence is understanding your strengths and arrogance is ignoring your
weaknesses. As Walter Bonds says "Confidence is arrogance under
control." Confidence can sometimes be difficult to manage. Arrogance and
confidence are intimately related.
As we know confidence is knowing our strength and weakness
so that we can prepare ourselves according to that. Confident people are simply
aware of both, their strengths and determined to use them to the best of their
ability. Confident people judge that they are right and are unafraid of those who may see things
differently. Arrogant people not only think they right but also feel superior
to other thoughts.
Perhaps confidence is arrogance without fear, and thus
without defensive postures.
Confidence is like believing own ability and do anything
that anyone else can do. While Arrogance is believing no one can ever do the things that you can
do. Confidence is more internal, quiet in nature and positive while arrogance is external, loud in nature
and negative.
Arrogance is the emotional and psychological tool of those
who seek power and authority to dominate others, Confidence is the quiet and
unassuming sense of emotional, physical and intellectual capability that allows a person to pursue various goals
with the hope for success. As a example we can take Adolf Hitler who was so
arrogant and wants to conquer whole world but at last results was nothing he
could not achieve what he wants. He just started the World War II because of
his arrogance and authority to dominate others.
As far as I know both confidence and arrogance are states of
mind and not a permanent characteristics of a person. Confidence is a state of
mind that comes from understanding oneself(both strengths and weaknesses)
through many levels. Arrogance is a
state of mind comes from understanding one's strengths only by ignoring the
weaknesses as feeling of insecurity and unknowingly create an insecure life.
