It's hard to be "confident" (online definition: sure of oneself, excessively bold) without being or at least coming off as "arrogant" (online definition: insolently proud).
As we know from my last blog, I'm attacked for this many times. I'm starting to think I'm becoming a menacing public identity. ((Will I follow in the steps of Tila Tequila and get MY own reality show? "Ian-Michael's Pitcher of Vodka"... >>It's just like "Tila Tequila's Shot at Love", except instead of finding love I drink a pitcher full of vodka and roll around on a porch.<<))
Some people think that I'm "attractive" (online definition: providing pleasure or delight; pleasing, charming, alluring). Some people don't. More importantly, many people (spoken or not) find me to be arrogant.
Well, if I am a public figure as I've arrogantly self-proclaimed myself to be, I'm using my online controversy and popularity to say this:
It's not about being attractive, it's about feeling attractive.
If you feel attractive, you'll feel confident in everything you do. If you feel confident, you'll be happy with everything you do. If you think you're attractive, who cares what anyone else thinks? And if you're happy, who gives a damn if people think that you're arrogant? It just makes the relationships in your life with the people who actually take the time to get to know you that much more meaningful.
