I think that arrogance is good to a certain degree, it can keep you moving. Yet, I think that I'm losing my control to it. I'm hurting the girl I love because of it (I'm acting like I'm best than her), I'm making my friends confused (I'm acting like I'm best than them) and so on.

How should I fight arrogance? I've always been an humble person, who cares for everyone, but since my success sky-rocketed, I'm acting like I'm the best person in the Universe. And I'm disgusting myself. Mainly, I hate the idea of hurting the girl I love and can't really make myself concerned about it.

I just want to keep having more success, always. But I want to keep being humble, not hurting people, and really caring with others, not just with myself.

Thanks.
In the privacy of your own head do you actually believe that you're better than the girl that you love? Do you actually believe that you're better than your friends?

I'm asking genuinely not in a smart ass manner by the way.
