TBH, I actually agree lol. I think the same thing. You gotta be a little bit of a jer sometimes to be able to be successful. Being a jerk is something I need to work on hehe.

What’s the details on the blog hosting? (not interested personally, just wondering) And what is the blogging magazine?

I disagree. You don’t have to be arrogant at all. Perhaps in some service fields, but aside from that, not at all.

Arrogance just really comes out off. . However, Authority and Confidence should go hand in hand to become successful.

I don't know if arrogant is the right word, but you certainly have to be confident. Bloggers who come off as wishy-washy tend to not go very far. You gotta have some authority. Mike's last blog post..Do You Hate U3 On Your Flash Drives?

Your confidence isn’t arrogance, its ‘confidence’

Great stuff guys, thanks for the comments. Re the word used – perhaps arrogance was a bit off, however for me, overbelieving in your abilities – for example, I believe I can start one of the biggest projects in blogging history despite having no past record – to me, that borders on arrogance. Which I’m glad to have, as without it there is no way I’d have a chance in hell of succeeding

Arrogance may not be the best word…

Certainly show power. Don’t let people walk over you, but don’t be rude.

When you need to, summon up a little anger and determination and let it show on your face. Don’t have an outburst – only immature people lash out when they are angry. But use this to show that you are above them (even if you aren’t ) – the key is to intimidate is some cases.

I totally agree with this. Ive shown arrogance with value of advertising spots on some of my sites and managed to drive the price higher. Which is good when starting out as you have more money to invest in advertising your site or whatever you want it for. Now however as some of my sites are getting bigger i would rather ust do it at a fair price for longer terms, as i dont have to mess around finding more avertisers a month later. My general rule is short term push the price up as it involves more work, short term reduce the price as its 1 worry off your mind then and guarenteed income for 3 or more months. tony's last blog post..Ronaldinho to Inter in the Summer
