If you feel good, it's perfectly fine. You're going to polarize people but you'll have people that fuck with you more

Confidence is believing in one's own ability. Arrogance is expressing disbelief in the ability of others as compared to you.

A confident person's aim is to inspire others to believe in him. An arrogant person's aim is to make other's question their own ability as compared to him.

Confident statement: "I'm going to win this tournament."

Arrogant statement: "There's no one here who can compete with me."

Is there anything you cannot do? Or no?

Arrogance is different from confidence.

Confidence is knowing what you are talking about from getting it wrong 999 times before. You are damn correct to be confident if you know all the ways to fail at doing something. And you know all they ways to do it correctly.

Arrogance is not knowing what the fuck you are talking about and acting like you do.
