Stand up to an arrogant person, and you will be surprise how fast they will back down!

Arrogant People

            They are out there, surrounding us all, they think they know better, and yet when you place them on the spot, they back down. To me that is a bully, and they get on my nerves, and yet they are all around and they think they know better.

Never let anyone get the best of you, because once they do, they will walk all over you and humiliate you.

            It is those who go about humiliating you that need to be humbled, perhaps put in there place or told where they stand, and that is what I did tonight.

            I use to say yes sir and no sir, but what makes someone better than I am, God created us equally, and I plan to let you and everyone else know that. I work just as hard as you, my stress levels are equal to most people out there, so why should I let arrogant people get away with bullying me around.

            I spoke up for myself tonight and darn it, it felt good. Arrogant people will continue to be arrogant and try to control situations, along with you, as long as you allow them to. It is a decision, do you want to be controlled, or do you want to be a leader, and lead everyone down a path of humility and fairness.

            Open your month speak up for yourself and you will be surprised at how much respect you will get, because a bully does not want to be confronted!

    This really does work. I have had to do it a few times in my life and the bully always backs down because basically they are cowards. A good write.

    I agree never back down no matter, but do it nicely that will make the other person look stupid, there is a way of doing that.

    You are so right! When I was a younger lad, I was intimidated, but as I grew older I stood up for myself and things changed. Great article.

    There is a type of arrogance that I don’t understand what you mean by don’t back down. When someone is arrogant in their appearance. They don’t even neccessarily give you a reason to need to back down, they just boast about themselves extensively so there is nothing to back down from, just leaves a frustrating feeling that they think so highly of themselves and so obviously low of others around them.
