Difference between Confidence and Arrogance

There is a thin line between confidence and arrogance but the result that the two gives are very different. Confidence is a positive term that boosts a person's self esteem whereas on the other hand arrogance is a negative term that acts as a hindrance in our personality development.  In other word, arrogance is overconfidence. Our confidence level reflects how smart we are while arrogance shows how stubborn we can get to prove our point. Self confidences is good but over confidence or arrogance can only do badly to oneself.

People have confidence inside them when they know about something and have full belief about it. And if a person is too proud to be confident and thinks he knows everything than anyone then that is called arrogance. A person with confidence does something up to their ability in order to prove their potentiality and they always try hard to make things go better. They know their abilities and also their weaknesses and they are not afraid to be themselves.

But an arrogant person never thinks about working hard as they think everything they do will go perfect and also they think that they are always right. They try to make people feel that they are not good enough which is offensive to those people.  That person has got confidence inside him but that too much of confidence leads him to be an arrogant one. Arrogant person never seeks for his weakness. Instead, he becomes too stubborn to prove his point of view without acknowledging the opinion of other person. He only tries to find out the weak side of other people.

Person with confidence are loved and respected by everyone whereas a person with over confidence and arrogance are only neglected and they only gain hatred from every person. Thus, every person should develop self confidence and try to stay away from arrogance in order to achieve success in life and get appreciated by others.

Green IT

IT is most important in today's century as lives have been more comfortable with these increasing technologies. But at the same time, it has been a disastrous as well because of the unwanted production of carbons and over utilization of the power or energy consumption. Green IT also known to be green technology describes the study and the use of the Information Technology in an efficient way which helps in reducing the waste as well as the consumption of the energy or power. According to the given article, it is said that power is consumed even when any companies or buildings are unoccupied. Different technologies consumes large amount of energy even if the equipment is switched off. So, in order to prevent the power from being wasted, we need to switch off equipments at the plug every time we switch it off. We need to aware every people about the effects that can be caused by IT equipments if we don't help ourselves as well as everyone by saving the energy. Excess usage of equipment leads to the production of unwanted carbon and gases that will degrade the environmental condition and may even cause global warming. So starting with us, with the knowledge of Green IT we will have to start saving the power and consumption of energy by directly switching off at the plug.
The energy calculator PC equipment helps in identifying the electric power consumed by the PC in a whole year that will help us find out the solution for consuming the power in a very less amount. Using this calculator we will be able to find out what can be done for further least consumption of energy. Also it calculates the electric consumption when the PC is in off mode or idle mode or on mode.
