Meanwhile, the person who holds it, popularly, is called arrogant
Arrogance is a characteristic that some people present and that is manifested through the presentation of characteristics such as arrogance, arrogance and a feeling of superiority that makes the individual who possesses it feel much superior to others.
The arrogant, as his personal brand always tends to exaggerating their own importance to the world around them.
Feel superior to others
While one can generally identify the arrogant through his words, it is also possible that the arrogant does not manifest himself preeminently through what he says but more through his actions.
For example, in a meeting or in any other area, the arrogant person will be easy to detect because he will be the one who will constantly throw away the opinions and comments of the rest of the people, of course, placing himself above them with his own opinions and comments. You will also tend to underestimate and belittle others.
Another very common and characteristic issue of arrogance is that the person who suffers from it does not recognize errors even though they are very obvious. Such is the overcoming in which he is believed to be positioned that the arrogant person is incapable of saying to another, "Yes, I was wrong." As a consequence of this, the error will never be his but others.
For this reason we mentioned is that almost always the arrogant turns out to be a very unpopular and unpleasant individual with which it is preferable to have as little contact as possible.
According to specialists in the human psyche, arrogance is a serious defect in the personality, and as we saw, being a characteristic that the common people reject, the person will be affected by social rejection and disapproval.
The usual thing is that in the name of that superiority that he feels as a consequence of an over-dimensioned conception of himself, he tends to hurt those around him with various manifestations, disparaging his sayings, his beliefs.
Affective deficiencies mark their development
Regarding the factors that determine arrogance, the specialists coincide in pointing to the affective deficiencies that they would have suffered in life as the most determining cause in this sense. The lack of containment, affection, affection, protection, on the part of the parents, in the development stage, the person can counteract it with an absolutely opposite position, that of showing excessive love for himself, a capacity for power with everything. Such is the anguish that the person feels at the possibility of failing, of not being accepted, that then he decides to hide his shortcomings by demonstrating tremendous strength and authority. But of course, at the bottom of that being there is only a feeling of disgust and dissatisfaction with himself that is born precisely from that lack of love that the elders did not know how to give him in a timely manner.
Stereotype present in literature and other fiction formats
Secondly, the stereotype that constitutes the arrogant is very common to find in the narrative tradition; Films, stories, novels and plays always feature an arrogant one who does his thing., because they, due to the characteristics that they boast per se, are very rich when it comes to having to develop any type of plot. Obviously it is not the good guys, the heroes, but the antagonists, the villains of the story, who display this all-too-common characteristic of arrogance.
Although they are the least, it is also recurrent that those humorous and kind-hearted characters present some quota of arrogance in fictional stories.
Synonym of bravery
And another of the uses of the term, not at all in a negative sense like the one mentioned, is to refer to the courage or decision that a person presents in a certain circumstance. The arrogance he displayed, even in the face of danger, was truly admirable.
