I’m on board with the power of arrogance especially if it’s not really in spite of anyone else. I think however it could be TOO powerful of a concept for a lot of people. They may end up being able to justify internalized shame of some kind.

Overall if someone is suggesting to “be more moderate!” I think that’s something to ignore. This is an example of a human mind attempting life and I can’t knock that especially when there is honestly a lot of power that comes from the perspective.

Try it out and internalize that arrogance and report how it works for you

That's a messed up outlook on it and idk if you know that.

They're recorded because they have proven once and again that they can't be trusted.
It's their job and they're doing it very wrong.

When they record they catch people in very vulnerable situations that can ruin their lives. They already serve punishment. No need to make it worse by airing it to public if it's no public matter.

The arrogance examples you used were funny, I use a similar method as you lmao in that I push myself with motivating words and thoughts, and thinking highly of myself. This is not to actually become that made-up grand person in my head, it is very clearly fiction, but telling those stories gives you purpose- especially if you’re someone who feels unstable in their own selves and unsure. Doing that in the past has helped me get a grip of myself, and now I can better recognise all the blessings I have in my life already, to be grateful for and to jump on the opportunity to prove that gratitude by being modest and helpful to others. So yea, I dunno if this relates to u or

Wow. Just wow. Become the self-aggrandizing asshole you hate does not sound like a good idea to me. How about becoming moderate, reasonable, and practicing things like compassion for self and others? And, maybe, recognizing the good things in your life on a daily basis?

Everybody who’s replied has been on the money. It’s a combination of sleep, studying, and believing in yourself. Make sure you are well rested so you can study, and well rested before your exam. It’s challenging to to study, but as soon as you start, it’s easy to keep your rhythm.

What always helps me the most is watching videos regarding the topic. Sometimes it’s best to teach yourself and develop your own understanding of the subject material.

Good luck!
