the lives of C. A. Webb 8/24/2005 10:26:21 AM
I had an enlightening conversation yesterday with a good friend of mine--- who in a nut shell let me know what he thought about the lives I live as C. A. Webb.
First, I was told that really I am not as good a people person as I thought I was. That was surprising to me, in a sense, because I used most of my life to try to work with people and improved their lives through things that I did.
Which led to the second thing that he said: that I came across as snotty and arrogant. Now, I would be lying if I said that those words have never been linked to me before, but normally I thought people were joking when they said that. Me, really being arrogant? I have to say that I don't see it.
Confident. Yes, I have used a great deal of confidence to achieve what I want. But that is not the same thing to me as being arrogant. I don't try to lord my gifts and abilities over others--- that is not only unfair but defeats the entire purpose.
Instead what I try to do is show people that if I can do these things, then surely they can do them as well.
That's it. Nothing really deep about it.
