I’ll be explaining why some people think the world owes them something.
They can be a very frustrating type of person to deal with but they’re important to learn about.
It might be a slight conflict of interest that I’m addressing this while I come from a Millenial perspective.
For those unaware of our generation is actually labeled entitled.
And when you’ve been labeled ‘entitled’ you’re likely seen as someone that thinks the world’s in debt to you.
Why do some people think the world owes them something?
There’s a universal law that supports the idea of what you give is also received.
Most people think the world owes them something because they have a sense of entitlement.
It’s probably someone you know.
These people seem to always go through hardships.
Stay far away from them.
How can you tell if someone feels entitled?
It’s pretty easy to tell if someone feels entitled.
They’ll demand special treatment!
The zone of expectation is what places them in this category.
They expect other people to do things for them.
Maybe the worse part about it is that they won’t even show gratitude for whatever gets done on their behalf.
Flirting very close with the concept and philosophy of a narcissist is because they constantly crave admiration.
How do you deal with an entitled person?
The best way to deal with an entitled person is by actually avoiding them.
These type people are the ones you need to set boundaries with.
They’re people that need to be educated on their risky behavior most of the time.
Because they’re quick to make assumptions on what they feel owed by you it’s best to decline their requests most of the time.
It’s still wise to treat everyone equally ESPECIALLY if an entitled person is in your rotation.
It might sound mean to treat entitled people this way but you it’s necessary.
Matter of fact it’s actually important to show them some compassion but remember your limits.
There’s just some people that won’t change no matter how much you make adjustments for them.
Why do some people get misread as being entitled?
Some people get misread as being entitled because the ones that judge them are most likely unfamiliar with personality-types.
That’s actually a reason I like the MBTI personality tests.
They seem pretty accurate to me.
But when you come across someone that actually fits the mold of being entitled they commonly ignore other people’s human rights.
The person that’s accurately defined as entitled’s usually dealing with a secret insecurity struggle.
An area they’re most likely lacking in that we can help them with is communicating effectively.
Why is it best to stay away from entitled people?
It’s best to stay away from entitled people because when they don’t get what they want they’ll likely last out at others in frustration.
Most aren’t even aware that they’re operating out of entitlement.
They’re toxic people to the core and are synonymous with narcissists.
You can’t be hostile with them as that’s not the way to interact with anybody.
That behavior promotes isolation and can make clashing with entitled people tough because they’re disguised leaders.
They’re seen as having the confidence needed to be put in leadership roles.
