On Arrogance
BY SHEPHERD HOODWIN
"We each have a subpersonality that could be called the critic.
It's an essential part of self. If we didn't have it, we couldn't
take stock of ourselves and make improvements. For example, if
you're a performer, and received no accurate feedback on your
performance, you probably wouldn't be able to polish it much.
However, in arrogance, the critic is overdeveloped and tends to
go nonstop, exhausting the rest of self's ability to integrate

conclusions and its feedback is often inaccurate and unfair. A
well-balanced critic has a sense of proportion and knows when
to back off. It doesn't drown out the subpersonalities
responsible for compassion and respect..."
