These 3 signs tell you whether you act arrogantly on others
Do these things seem familiar to you?
From an early age you learn that the first impression counts. If these things seem familiar to you, you will probably look arrogant.
In a world in which self -confidence and assertiveness are very popular, it is sometimes difficult to say where self -confidence stops and arrogance begins. We show you three signs where you can see whether you may be perhaps unconsciously perceived as arrogant. Don't panic, everything half as wild - it's just about dealing more consciously with your self -expression.
What is arrogance?
Arrogance is a term that is often used to describe people who have an arrogant and complacent effect. But what exactly does arrogance mean? Arrogance means to consider yourself superior and infallible and to reduce or ignore others.
Arrogant people have a strong need for self -confirmation and recognition that they live out at the expense of others. In many cases, however, you are perceived as arrogant, although you are not at all. You can see from these signs whether you could have an arrogant effect on others.
1. Lack of empathy
If you are unable to understand or understand the feelings and perspectives of others, this can be perceived as arrogant. For example, if you only talk about yourself in a conversation and don't ask any questions or do not show any interest in your counterpart, this can be perceived as a lack of empathy.
2. Dominant occurrence
If you always have to have the last word in conversations or present your opinion as the only right one, this can quickly give your fellow human beings the impression that you are considered something better and are not willing to accept other opinions.
A dominant appearance can also be expressed in body language, for example through loud speaking or an upright posture. It is important that dominance is not automatically equivalent to arrogance. Rather, it depends on how to use this dominance and whether you take into account the needs and opinions of others.
3. Frequently interrupt or ignore
If you tend to spend the floor and interrupt others in conversations to express your own thoughts, this can be seen as a sign of arrogance. Even if you are not deliberately trying to ignore or devalue others, this can still be perceived.
If you realize that you often interrupt others or ignore their opinions, you should try to listen more consciously and hold back. By giving other space to express their thoughts and respecting their perspectives, you can show that you are not arrogant and can communicate with others at eye level.
It is important to remember that there is a difference between self -confidence and arrogance. Self -confidence often shows itself in a calm serenity and in the awareness of one's own skills, without reducing or disparaging others.
So if you are able to adapt your attitude and make your behavior more conscious, you can help create a positive self -image in society.
