Certainly, we have all met these people who seem very safe and boast about it, with their heads up, it seems that they know everything and that others will never rise to their height, they are people known for their air of superiority. They believe themselves better than others and have those who idolize them by their side and will be their victims.
“Our ego is soaring in relation to the insecurity we feel. -Rafael Calbet-
- Modesty is not a characteristic of such people.
- They are always proud and presumptuous of all they can to stand out from the crowd.
- Is it a mask to hide a huge complex?.
Think of the people who bully others. They are not as strong as they seem, because they need to hurt others to spread fear and thus be respected, but inside they are not as brave as they seem, they have serious problems that they hide and project against those around them.
This is also the case for people with airs of superiority, behind all this contempt for their own friends lies a much deeper problem that they seek to hide, a situation that they feed with a mask of self-sufficiency, but that will never be possible. Extinguished.
The human being has a great capacity to deny the problems that concern him, not only that, sometimes even seeing reality before his eyes, he has the great audacity to deny it, sometimes out of fear, sometimes out of shame. For people with airs of superiority, the big problem is the insecurity that haunts them.
As it could not be otherwise, self-esteem here plays a fundamental role, of course that in the face of these people you can act in two ways: feel superior or feel inferior, people with air of superiority block or mask their insecurity being superior to others, humiliating them to feel better about themselves.
One of the factors that can lead a person to look superior may be bullying during his school years, it is possible that in the next student stage, thinking of college, college, this young man radically changes the way he is to protect himself from another possible bullying attack.
So think that from day one, in order not to be trampled again, you must walk and be safe, showing yourself as someone who really isn’t, you’ll never recognize a mistake you made, it will fall on others. He can also be peedant and superb, with such a positive opinion of himself that he will be the model for many around him.
To fuel your airs of superiority, some people must follow you and obey you, otherwise your strategy will sink, to do so they will stand out for their great theatricality and make fun of their superiors so that others will realize who the true leader is.
Unfortunately for them, this situation ends sooner or later, but when this happens, self-esteem is already severely deteriorated, ignoring a problem will only make things worse and ensure that when we can no longer hold on to it, it will come to light. pushed and with enormous force, difficult to combat.
“Self-deception is first a warm shelter, then a cold prison. -Maria Jess Torres-
Wearing a mask will never be a good choice, the solution is in the search for balanced self-esteem, which allows you to feel safe and well on your skin, being a bad person will not make you feel better, at least not in the long term. Inside, you’ll still feel this emptiness and that terrible insecurity.
So when you’re with an air of insecurity, be careful, it’s not her fault because we don’t know what kind of horrible situations she had to go through, if you have a chance to contact and help her, do it. then; Otherwise, stay away and let her continue on her way until she solves her own insecurity problem.
Now you know that anyone who exaggerates his virtues, be it his safety, his strength, his courage, his intelligence, to be above others, is in conflict with that. It’s a way to protect yourself, even if it’s all you can. to do is get hurt.
