There has always been a fine line between being very confident in yourself and thinking the world of yourself. Most people who are extremely confident get judged by others as being too self-centered, which isn't true at all. Most people tend to confuse what it means to be conceited and what it means to be confident:

1. When Admitting You Are Wrong.

Confident people can openly admit they are wrong. When people think that by you ‘losing’ the other person ‘wins.’ When in reality ‘losing’ only makes you stronger.

How To Prove People Wrong

Conceited people strongly believe in ‘my way or the highway.’ This puts you above others and always makes you correct.

2. When Accepting A Compliment.

Confident people accept compliments humbly and know that even if you believe the compliment isn't true you still accept it anyways, because rejecting a compliment is like rejecting their perception.

Conceited people will respond from a compliment with ‘I know,’ and it doesn't get much ruder than that. Even if after you claim to be ‘just kidding’ everyone knows that there is some truth behind it.

3. When Carrying Yourself.

Confident people tend to walk around with their head held high and theirs shoulders back. Confident people are not afraid about certain situations because they always seem to be able to understand others view points.

Conceited people will have the attitude as ‘their shit doesn’t stink’ and walk around with their nose in the air. It is hard for these people to sympathize with others situations because they feel as if they are grater than them not equal.

4. When Talking About Personal Successes.

Confident people will acknowledge they did will and not harp on the fact. They will mention all the hard work they put in plus they wont forget to mention all the others who helped them reach their goal.

Conceited people strongly believe that they are the only factor for their success. They also tend to over exaggerate all of the obstacles they have over come just to reach their goal.
