@@goosecouple Exactly 👍

I agree, it's only challenging to do this right. It's better to understand the person, and how s/he receives compliments. For some people, compliments may mean something good that uplifts them, for others it may become pressure from a raised expectation. So are criticisms, and improvements. One may tell both positive and negative but the person might focus on the negative and develop a lower self-esteem. It depends on the person you're complimenting. Maybe that compliment you say to be polite becomes that person's motivation to continue the certain activity. It's hard to know, really, what will happen.

Ikr same, I get some answers right but I always follow my friend cuz I don't have self comfidence

Devin Belson either that, or you have a very low self esteem brother

Esteban Garcia you are correct I do not have any esteem for myself. I have esteem for other people Like Elon Musk and Nikola Tesla because I respect and admire them. esteem is something you should have for other people. Self-esteem was created for people that nobody else admired so they found a way to start patting themselves on the back because nobody else would. If you're doing something right you don't have to tell yourself you're awesome because other people will. then if you have to tell yourself you're awesome and have esteem for yourself then there's a reason nobody else is giving it to you, and you should probably look into changing some things in your life.

Devin Belson It's all relative. Sometimes it's like you're Danny DeVito in a room full of Garry Colemans.

Devin Belson That's the Donald - Kruger effect.

Doesn't matter if you do good, there is enough people that will run with your good work if you don't do it yourself. Nothing wrong with self esteem.

the shortest explanation in this video is that incompetent people tend to think they are amazing because they use this as a defense mechanism to feel some relief and temporarily forget their failure truth of what who they really are

I agree! My godfather is a lawyer and he must be a bad one lol because he has given me some of the worst, most time and money and peace of mind consuming „advice“ I ever got. By now I only do small talk with him and I don‘t update him about my life anymore, only about things where he can‘t do any damage. He thinks he knows EVERYTHING and always better than anyone else. He‘s a major gaslighter and will NEVER not if his life depends on it admit a mistake or say sorry. He‘s above all that and by now I feel kinda sorry for him because his biggest fear must be being incompetent. The problem is that these ppl DEFINE THEMSELVES through their profession. They don‘t understand that who they are is OUTSIDE OF THE JOB! 😄 Many ppl are like this and I keep them at arm‘s length out of my life. Their sense of self-importance, -righteousness and -worth ALWAYS comes at the expense of others. And when they are good at gaslighting and manipulating they often do make a good fortune of it.

@@karadiberlino the people who tend to say a lot of these following words: "who do you think you are?!" "you think you're special" "you think yourself as a special being" "you think you're a god" "you think you own everything" "you think that the world revolves around you!!" "you think you're king/queen" "you think of yourself a king/queen" "you think you're handsome/beautiful" they are likely the ones who is that, for example, when someone calls you a failure and that you think that you are "special" the person who calls you this a few times, is likely that person is him/her the word ones he/she uses to call you because that person is projecting his/her failure to other somebody as a defense mechanism to give themselves a temporary comfort of relief and these words are likely had been also told to them many times in their lifetime

Actually, people that are better are things are more likely to think they’re worse, because they understand enough to know what being “good” means.

As someone who can't draw. I mean I can't draw anything. I mean I am quite special and exceptional in my inability to draw. I failed a drawing assignment in Kindergarten, type of bad. I think you might have the expert bias of thinking everyone else should be able to do it.

Damn.. that could have a great effect if they are trying to learn more about people in general. And yeah, we asians we're practiced to be humble and respect one another even as a baby lols.

Exactly. I recently moved to the US and this is mildly confusing. It's almost like people who boast are the ones who get respect from others. Where I came from, being more quiet and humble is valued more. I think a combination of the two is best though. Not too humble, and not overconfident.

Agreed.

As a Western person, I just had to respond to your comment. I just could not let it pass without adding this. You are so RIGHT!!!! In Western culture, you have to blow your own trumpet to get anywhere, including job interviews. Western society is big on a person being smarter, faster and being better than anyone else. And all you have to do is look at the people being followed on social media. Like the Kardashian's, feckless people who are only in it for the money and millions love them. Western society is about being better than anyone else. As you are an Asian, I would bet in America, most people would look down on you, especially if you are brighter or have a better education. Westerners on the whole are fake, lack culture and lack the ability to accept that other cultures are as valued or as good as their own. Americans on the whole are really uneducated people who are brought up on propaganda and do not have the ability to understand that fact. Just watch any of their news, left or right, it is propaganda and very little news reporting. I am Australian, and I love the way Asians embrace education, that shows smart people. And it is funny, but unlike my peers, I get on very well with Asians from everywhere. Cheers

Eh I'm not sure, usually Asian parents will brag about their sons or daughters slightly and try to maintain a 'humble' tone. It all depends on that person, but they will always act polite by not being too proud or boastful. On the other hand, idk how that applies to the kids or the Asian people, since I've never been taught or seen someone teach others to act 'humble' in their cognitive abilities in Asia. I mean, we obviously hate people that boast too much in Asia cause we are proud of ourselves and fell superior inside, so we act 'humble' in public so that more people will talk to us and be gathered around you even though you have a high esteem in the inside kinda like a snake. That's what I deduced about asians after long years of my parents and other parents showing off about their kids and acting polite and 'humble' for the majority of the time.

Well said Dan

I think the problem with most self-evaluated things is that we all have different standards for what is "good" in the first place. If each score has a different standard, then you can't compare the scores. Staying with the driving theme: 1a. I score myself higher than someone else because I got around them quickly and then well out of their way. Minimal interaction, so if something goes wrong with either of us, it doesn't automatically involve the other. And for highway entrance ramps, I'll use a lot of throttle to match speed, and often position in my chosen gap too, by the time I get there. Just slide right in. (wide-open close to red-line is okay; it's louder than usual, but it's designed to do that for exactly this purpose) I really don't like when someone else in front of me, coasts all the way down the ramp and THEN tries to merge while only going about half the speed of the traffic they're trying to merge with! (big trucks get an exception, because they tend to be under-powered for their weight and highly visible, and they can pretty much do whatever they want anyway and win; regular cars don't) 1b. That same "someone else" scores themselves higher than me because they drive slowly. Slow = safe, right? 2a. I get frustrated when two slow people sit next to each other, significantly under the expected speed, taking both lanes for this direction, and I'm behind them. 2b. They think nothing of it. In fact, they may not even realize that's what they're doing, or even that they're doing *anything* beyond rote "driving motions". Meanwhile, the camera-less under-the-dash diagnostic plug that their insurance gave them says they're doing wonderfully... 3a. "Safe", to me, involves the expectations of others, which in turn, requires constant observation. If everyone's ignoring the speed sign, as they do in my city, then it becomes a hazard to actually follow that sign. In a different city that I used to frequent, they do take the sign more seriously, so I do too when I'm there. When in Rome... 3b. "Safe", or at least "morally imperative" with no discussion allowed, to some people I've met, means following the letter, regardless of where they are or what's happening around them. - Etc. I hope I didn't include TOO many "strawmen" in that! But even so, I think you still get my point.

"Nobody knows anything, but I, knowing nothing, am the smartest man in the world." ~ Socrates What I got is that we can only perceive what we think we know through our senses, which may be detecting a mere illusion of reality. So thinking you know more than nothing is ignorance and that he's come to understand that there's no possible way to perceiving the true reality, which makes him the wisest.
