It’s known for a fact that people with strong opinions and powerful
personalities can be often mistakenly seen as arrogant and dominant.
Sadly, they can be misinterpreted only by insecure and small-minded

Some of them will perceive you as rude. Others will think of you as a

dominant person. However, all of these opinions are inflicted by your

great deal of self-confidence that leaves them intimidated by your
strong traits.

People feel threatened by a powerful personality because they don’t

understand how someone can be so comfortable with themselves
without having a care in the world of what you might think of them.

Here are 8 power personality traits that might scare some

people:

1. You don’t need attention

People with this type of personality are known to be the most low-key
individuals you’ll ever meet. They don’t have the time nor energy to
waste on meaningless attention-seeking acts.

They radiate self-confidence and determination. Life taught them

how to stand their ground, so don’t expect them to come begging for
a pinch of attention.

However, despite their lack of neediness, their charisma often

attracts a lot of people and the amount of socializing is not because
they’ve asked for it but because people like to have them around.

2. You are not concerned with pleasing everyone

unfitting someone might find it.

Yes, you’ll never stop treating others with respect, but that doesn’t
mean respecting someone by underestimating yourself.

People with powerful personalities will always reveal their true

colors, and if someone is feeling intimidated and can’t accept it, then
so be it!

3. You don’t put up with excuses

Strong people will never waste their precious time putting up with
excuses. They’ll go out of their comfort zone and choose to make the
best of it.

4. You hate small talk

I’ll speak from my personal point of view. I mean come on… Those
awkward talks about “what’s new” or the usual dull talk about the
weather with a person you haven’t seen in years is definitely out of
the question.

Real, raw talks about emotions, energy, the universe, the unknown
give me the goosebumps and bring a tear to my eye, whenever it’s
shared with a very dear person.

People with strong opinions are intelligent human beings. They need
to converse about ideas, innovations, or creative solutions to
obstacles.

garbage wrapped up in a dialogue.

5. You can’t stand ignorance and insensitivity

You can’t stand people who tend to make instant judgments about
things they’re not certain about and react instinctively without even
thinking.

Personality supported by strong traits such as yours are the result of

being thoughtful, empathetic and well-informed.

6. You stick to your morals

You stand your ground firmly and know that nothing out there can
affect your balance. No matter how wrong for someone they may
seem, or how different from their viewpoint they might be, your
morals are your main principles that provide you guidance through
life.

No one will convince you to do something that isn’t a part of your

own moral system in the first place.

7. You admit when you’re wrong

A person that cultivates a strong-trait personality is aware of their

flaws as much as their qualities. They tend to distance themselves
from the EGO, the superiority of a person. Whenever a mistake is
made,

The ball won’t always be in our court, and that is perfectly fine.

Instead of being childish over an innocent mistake, people with

strong personalities will admit it and move on to the next chapter.

8. You are not arrogant, you have a strong attitude

If you’re an independent know-your-value type of person, you can

sometimes be misinterpreted as arrogant. Small people can get easily
insulted and act destructively toward the people who express their
strong opinions without feeling guilty about it.

Your strong attitude may cause a stir in their poorly adjusted belief
system and it’s often expected of them to label you as an arrogant
person. No matter what, you stick to your guns!
