<p>There are hundreds of people your age who are notable enough to have (legit) Wikipedia pages.</p>
<p>Well, I could start making a list of people who are smarter than you, but I’d be here forever. Just think about how much smarter some people are than you. You really aren’t that remarkable in comparison to them. Neither am I.</p>
<p>You could be internally arrogant? And silently snicker in your head, while you put on modest facade?</p>
<p>That’s^ the best solution, IMO. It’s far easier to pretend to change then to actually do so.</p>
<p>
Now where’s the fun in that.</p>
<p>Arrogance is really only negative if you make the people around you feel bad by making them think they are lesser than you. Surround yourself with people better than you, or try to make yourself appear to be lesser than you really are.</p>
<p>somehow meet David Yang or Evan O’Dorney and talk with him. These are the 2 most arrogant people I’ve ever met(I only know math people).</p>
<p>^I’ve talked to someone who has met David Yang. And he basically said the same thing. He’s really good and he knows it.</p>
<p>But at least he has a good reason.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Always have the attitude of a beginner.</p></li>
<li><p>Common courtesy.</p></li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li><p>When you are explaining/teaching a person something, don’t make them feel inferior because they don’t know it</p></li>
<li><p>Know that you are awesome but just keep it in your heart</p></li>
<li><p>Stop trying to fulfill your contentment by proving you are ‘superior’</p></li>
<li><p>Don’t make a big deal about compliments, not even to say, “No… you are totally wrong I’m so not good at that. I mean, I suck.” Because that’s just annoying, period.</p></li>
