I just read a couple of threads on the pros and cons of stuff... and in the pros there is confidence.... and in the cons, there is arrogance listed.

What's the difference?

How do you know which is confidence and which is arrogance?


Cause I am confident with who I am... and I type my responses in confidence that they are MY responses... and I get called arrogant all the time....

so which is which?????

huh

To ME, confidence is believing in what you say, what you do and who you are. Arrogance is refusing to believe that there are other ways to say and do things, that aren't your way. flowerforyou

agreed, to add with arrogance, perhaps being a braggart

to me


Confidence is a belief in my(own) abilities...

Arrogance is a disbelief in others abilities...

Confidence is displaying what and who you are.

Arrogance is talking down to others because they are not the same.

confidence is a feeling of certainty, or boldness.

Arrogance is the same feeling but with superiority. Your way, belief, attitude, etc. is better than everyone elses and you let them know it.

Well it would be nice for everyone if you could nail something like that down. Unfortunately you are talking about something that is subjective and everyone has their own opinion. What is arrogance to one is confidence to another.

As far as your dilema goes,, I would stick to my own guns and take lifes ups and downs with it. Some will call you arrogant and some will see you as confident.

Yes, I do think it is.

What for one seems to be just confident, another might perceive as bold.
It somehow depends on ones mindset, too.

I've read some of your posts and I haven't come across anything I would consider arrogant.
