.ignorant.
what can be worst than somebody who is falling into a pit without realising? Being arrogant, complacent and appearing as if he/she owes the world doesn't make one more admirable or capable. Modesty and staying humble is the way to go, dude.
Somewhat, interacting with people of such type makes me uncomfortable. Imagine, attaining some success at this stage of life and you are already showing arrogance and complacency. I honestly cannot imagine how these people will become when they are out in the corporate world. Focused on eliminating the people of their kind - pin-pointing on their flaws and find means and ways to get rid of them with the hope of being able to rise up the corporate ladder faster?
Wake me up one day if I start having such symptoms please.
"Something in human nature causes us to start slacking off at our moment of greatest accomplishment. As you become successful, you will need a great deal of self-discipline not to lose your sense of balance, humility, and commitment. " ~Ross Perot
"Success: To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!" ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
