Introduction
• Pride –noun (noun, verb, - prided, priding. ) – a high or inordinate opinion
of one's own dignity, importance, merit, or superiority, whether as
cherished in the mind or as displayed in bearing, conduct, etc.
This trait is one of the many characteristics many people find positive to
possess. Arrogance is usually looked down upon though it is a direct result
of pride. In fact, here’s a couple of very interesting statistics.
Confidence paves the way for you to do and satisfy your for yourself. This way,
you strive to be better than your self – allowing you to become better
versus thinking you are already among the best and making excuses for
why you aren’t the best already. Pride also is an indirect result of being
naturally good at something. Though most people find talent in at least
one thing, that does not necessarily mean you are the best, or anywhere
near closed to it.
Result of Confidence
• Having confidence will void the fear of looking bad in
front of others because you are doing it for yourself.
Doing for yourself will pave way to you naturally to
follow the order of Maslow’s chart and put your
family and friends needs over your own ego. This will
not only lead to a better relationship with your family
and friends, but it will also keep you from putting
your health and well being in danger.
