How do you recoqnise arrogance in you?
Arrogance might become a blind spot for many people.
How do we know that we have arrogance? What is the sign?
When we have arrogance, we quickly feel insulted. This is a very simple indication to do a self-check. When you easily feel insulted, there might be a certain percentage of arrogance in you. It is your ego that gets insulted. Ego is the false you.
It has been a long time that I am frustrated with someone that I thought he is having a very big ego. And he is my brother.
You might relate to sibling relationship problem. Arrogance is one of the two faces of an ego. The other one is depression or feeling not good enough due to lack of self-value.
I could see the arrogance in him very clearly and very big. I kept justifying myself that I was not having the arrogance. This is what I mean as a blind spot.
But if I reflect on myself and ask myself 'Do I feel insulted by that one's behaviour?' I can quickly say YES.
To be very honest that I have been avoiding him because of having this feeling. The wound inside is still not healed. I am aware of this.
It is hard to accept the truth that other people become mirrors to see what we can not see in us, the blind spots.
Arrogance is often a blind spot.
