QUESTION of the Week: How does arrogance and anger interplay?
Anger may be defined as a strong feeling of annoyance, displeasure, or hostility and is one trait of projected arrogance (see last weeks BLOG).
Anger dramatically weakens respect in the perpetrator and their perceived ability to make effective decisions. It manifests when someone is severely over-tired (no time to respond), has no argument (no knowledge to respond), and can only disagree, disagreeably.
Anger at the very least, makes someone appear to be unwilling, or more likely unable to communicate in a way that unites, edifies and contributes to a mutually beneficial outcome.
In a 2013 study Cognitive Psychologist Michael Greenstein of Framingham State University, Massachusetts noted that angry people are more susceptible to misinformation, and more likely to use false information to guide their decision-making and actions.
This study also revealed that information and confidence, traditionally in harmony, conflicted in angry people. As angry people feed more and more on misinformation, they become more confident in their misunderstanding.
Angry people confuse a heightened state of emotion for a heightened state of reason, problem solving and abstract thinking. They believe themselves to be alert, aware, firing on all cylinders, but act as if they were drunk.
Greenstein implied that anger-inhibited people are more at risk than the alcohol-inhibited. Whilst alcohol impairs memory, anger creates false memories. “A constellation of risks”, is how Greenstein refers to the implications of anger. Ignore these risks at the peril of relationships.

Arrogance, all too often, is a trait in the eye of the beholder.
When people accuse others of being arrogant, they do not consider there are several ‘types‘ of that condition. For the purpose of this paper, we shall identify two: actual and projected.
Actual Arrogance is readily observable. It is when someone intentionally looks down on someone they perceive as inferior in background, confidence, skill or knowledge. They take perverse pleasure in mocking or belittling them, especially in the company of others. In short, they are said to ‘crow‘.
Projected Arrogance is more common than actual arrogance and rarely accepted by the individual in possession of it. It manifests when someone projects their own failings on to others they perceive as possessing greater confidence, skills or knowledge than themselves. They use this defence tactic to justify their own feelings of insecurity. In short, they play a 'blame game'.
The following describes some of the major traits of those who project their own arrogance and is intended as a protection against it:
1. Projected Arrogance ~ contribute their own weaknesses as someone else‘s fault. They project their own fears, limiting beliefs, and toxic thinking seeking reassurance by blaming another
2. Projected Arrogance ~ whilst genuine humility speaks a quiet truth, projected arrogance manipulates people and situations to reinforce itself. Those who engage in gossip, angry outbursts, resentment and feelings of being offended, display arrogance not humility
3. Projected Arrogance ~ behaves pridefully towards those they accuse of possessing it. Such pride manifests as defiance supposing it is in the right. It is unsympathetic, close-minded and vexatious
4. Projected Arrogance ~ attempts to mask its own insecurity. It strives to conceal doubt and feelings of inadequacy that can have a significant detrimental effect on one‘s purpose in life. Prolonged feelings of insecurity are clinically linked to depression, anxiety, paranoia, addiction and dependency
Truly Confident People Are Not Arrogant
They ...
- are proactive and continue positively towards the end in mind
- decide quickly and think win/win for all involved
- listen to others seeking first to understand, then to be understood
- do not take offence: when in disagreement, they do so agreeably
- speak with quiet authority because they know what is real
- celebrate the success and achievement of others
- focus on their own strengths, working to the strengths of others

The aim of our UETP BLOG is always to Unleash Everyone's True Potential. With this in mind we offer the following rather unusual BLOG.
Please read on ...
These past twelve months or so have been a period in human history that has brought the very worst and the very best out of people.
Misinformed and inadequate political leadership, corrupt industrial profiteering, and corporate pirates, used fake science to deceive this world into mass hysteria, causing economies, businesses, families, and social freedom to collapse on an unprecedented global scale.
Black Knights bamboozled the common man into fearing fear itself through manipulation, misinformation, selective statistics, and outright lies.
The reasons why will become evident in the near future. There are White Knights who will bring to book these deceitful tyrants. They are the honest lawyers, honest doctors, honest scientists, honest journalists, and yes, honest politicians who will secure justice in honour of individuals, families and businesses that have fallen along the way, through unscrupulous hearsay, rumour and downright fraud.
As we write this BLOG, a group of German lawyers are preparing a World Class-Action Against Governments citing the alleged pandemic as The Biggest Crime Against Humanity In History.

We make no apology for re-publishing information that celebrates integrity, and honest, hard working people of every land, nation, colour and greed.
I recall Ridley Scott's 1982 film 'Blade Runner'. A dystopian view of a future orchestrated by those who would control everything, which seemed so Hollywood at the time. Watch it and see what such a future can hold.
We must never let a technocratic, greedy, power-grabbing, shameless, immoral, and yes, evil-minded minority become World Controllers.
All caring people, of every clime, must protect the future for their families and their families, families. Must stand and be counted as one voice of common decency. Must peacefully protest wherever and as often as we can, even in defiance of so-called emergency restrictions. And must make necessary changes to any system of Governmment that cripples civil liberty:

May God Bless Us Each And Every One.

We pause our weekly BLOG until January and truly wish your family a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
