arrogrance

PREPARE YOUR EYES TO READ AND YOUR HEART TO RECEIVE AS YOU TAKE IN THE WORDS THAT LOOK TO CHANGE LIVES, RENEW HEARTS, AND OPEN MINDS. 

When our normal is not normal anymore, we go through anxiety, which leads us to become agitated, frustrated, and irritable. This transition in our lives stems from us being scared and unaware of what comes next. We find it very frustrating when we don’t have an answer because we are unaware of an event or situation. This ignorance and the resulting arrogance can lead to strained relationships, misunderstandings, and missed opportunities. It is important to recognize these patterns and strive for humility and self-awareness, in order to improve our interactions with others.

 Arrogance is a sense of self-importance and superiority, while ignorance is a simple lack of knowledge or information. “

The fact is that arrogant people often choose not to understand something from someone else’s viewpoint; they tend to do one of two things: they either judge what they are seeing, or they react to it. Both prevent them from having empathy and caring. The inability to humble themselves and say, “they don’t know” when asked a question that is beyond their intellect, or to consider viewing a situation from a different lens outside of their own, is what leads to conflict and causes people to become defensive or disengaged.  

Humility, on the other hand, is a powerful tool for growth and understanding. It allows us to recognize our limitations and learn from others. It is the key to effective communication and empathy. Let us embrace humility and open our hearts and minds to the experiences and perspectives of others.

Effective communication does not necessarily mean that everyone must agree with each other. Still, when everyone feels heard, they tend to be more dedicated and loyal to the person and the process. For instance, active listening, asking open-ended questions, and expressing empathy are all effective ways to ensure that everyone feels heard and understood during a conversation.
