Episode 58 - Between Confidence And Arrogance

Although we’d like to believe that we have what it takes, sometimes we worry that we’re going to be seen as ‘arrogant’, over-confident or full of ourselves.   This alone can keep us from starting.  What’s the difference between confidence and arrogance and how can you build the former without seeming like the latter? Limiting Beliefs - concepts of what we are capable of are limited by our fears, which talk to us in sentences that start with ‘you can’t’.   Believing in the information to the contrary Arrogance - belief in your abilities and entitlements in ignorance of external information to the contrary Confidence - belief in your abilities and entitlements even in light of external information to the contrary Both limiting beliefs and arrogance can only be destroyed one way - through experience and reflection.  The initial spark of belief that surrounds arrogance is important for overcoming limiting beliefs though.
