STOP EXAGGERATING



ARROGANCE IS WHEN WE EXAGGERATE THE SMALL SELF INSTEAD OF LIVING OUR TRUE MAGNIFICENCE


Arrogance at its root is insecurity. It is when we hold a hidden belief that we are small and insignificant. So we attempt to make ourselves more by judging our accomplishments on how they compare to others .


Yet at the core of this behavior is the knowledge that we have judged ourselves not enough , because we suppress our true selves due to childhood trauma. So we embark on creating a false self , a mask of power and become obsessed with trying to improve this creation everyday , least anyone would find out what is hidden behind our mask.


Ultimately this continual hiding exhausts us and we see that it is not fulfilling, for the cost of all that effort is never worth the payoff. We never truly feel seen or loved because we dare not take the risk of revealing ourselves.


Yet if we are able to recognize the pointlessness of this game we can abandon this path and vulnerably reveal the truth of who we are.

The astounding thing is that when we drop this charade, we see that ‘everything we added to ourselves is actually less than what we came in with’ and we can finally own our true magnificence.


What arrogance can you drop today and discover your true value ?
