On Picking the Smartest Option
Noticing my own behavior, I found out that picking the most perfect smartest option is not the wisest option. I searched up the word smart-allec, and I think being bold and brashful means being a perfectionist snob.
Perfectionism is not a good thing, and seeing yourself as the key to all the answers is not good either. Neither is seeing yourself as the reason of everything, so to avoid appearing brashful or like a smart-allec. I guess the only way is for myself to accept mediocrity. Mediocrity and being average is not the end of the world. People get challenged many times, and in many ways and it can make you look foolish and unwise.
Accepting mediocrity and averageness, and the quality of being dull is not as bad as it seems. If I make myself look stupid, I know that I'm not the only one who makes the mistake. By taking responsibility and accepting the challenges I can understand that I don't have to be perfect, and that being perfect or forcing perfection will only hurt me.
You have to accept yourself for who you are, realizing other people have feelings and want to say as much as you. No one ever knows how other people may feel or think, because anything can be taken the wrong way. I know the moderators and admins here are only human, and they aren't Gods. They make mistakes like anyone else, and I'm only human like they are.
Take it all in stirde.
