What do you think of when being proud of something? Being proud of something you have poured your heart into can be a good thing. This means we care about the things we do. We should never be looking for someone else’s approval. The harder we work at something the prouder of ourselves we should be. Being overly proud of ourselves can be seen as a bad thing. We should never over do something; it’s like the saying goes little is good, more is better. Well not in this instance being overly proud can be seen as arrogant, or overbearing. This is defiantly not a good thing. There needs to be moderation between being proud and being overly proud where we may make someone feel uncomfortable.
Being proud just the right amount.
Being proud just the right amount shows that we have passion for things we do and care about. We must have some proudness inside us. This is what gives us passion to care for something we do or believe in. We should never be overly proud of something. We don’t want to be overly overconfident, arrogant, or overbearing. We can be proud of something or ourselves while still staying humble. Even if we know something we did is better than anyone else could ever do, we must still stay humble and never brag. Being overly proud makes others want to avoid you and even despise you.
Caring what others think.
We should be conscious of what others think and be mindful of their feelings. This should never be a damper of us feeling proud of something we have done or believe in. Proudness comes in many forms such as being proud of our family, hard work, accomplishments, and our beliefs. Just because we are so proud of these things, we never want to make someone else feel bad or down about themselves. We can show others we are proud of something, but we want to keep it moderate, so others don’t feel like we are trying to make us seem better than them. Have you ever felt like someone was so proud that it seemed they were bragging?
Things I am proud of?
I am proud of my family, my accomplishments, my job, and how far I have come in this life. As I am very proud of all this stuff am still very humble and thankful for the things I have and how far I have come. Working hard and suffering to get where I am; I would never want anyone to think that I think I am better than them. Because honestly, I am no better than anyone else. Everyone has their own stuff they are proud of, and they should be as well, we should be proud of them too. We all have our own challenges and sufferings. We may never understand what someone’s challenges are. Just because someone is proud of something so easy or simple; we should never laugh or make fun of their challenges. What may seem easy to us may be very challenging for someone else.
