Imperious people override those who follow them
Now I am going to talk about Imperious, a word that is quite interesting, according to the dictionary of the Spanish language Imperious comes from the Latin Imperiosus, it is an adjective that means that it commands or behaves authoritatively, said of an order given in an authoritative manner, It is also an adjective that means typical of someone authoritative or haughty, such as an imperious voice, an imperious gesture, an adjective that means strong and inescapable, a feeling, an imperious duty, an imperious law, an adjective that means necessary, urgent, pressing, for example a task or an urgent need.
Usually in our society we associate it with something or someone who is authoritarian, a dictator, a person who is domineering or demanding, something or a person who does not allow delay or procrastination or delay in something.
Generally, it is associated with people who have a lot of authority, great public positions or with people who traditionally exercise a lot of control over populations, such is the case of dictators or extremely authoritarian people and of course it is the case of emperors.
The most outstanding cases at the historical level of authoritarian emperors are, for example, Napoleon Bonaparte, we have Mao the Chinese communist who was the founder of the People's Republic of China, we have the case of Francisco Franco who is the Spanish general, we have Saddam Hussein And of course, the oldest of all and perhaps the most famous for all of you is Julius Caesar, the Roman general and politician who was a dictator in the year 44 BC and who had absolute power over Rome.
What I want to talk about today is how these imperious people nullify all their followers, how they turn them into zombies, into people who are not capable of reasoning or thinking, but just accept everything these people tell them, these dictators or These authoritarian people generally tend to feel superior or better than the people who follow them, they always want to impose their ideas by force and do not take into account what the people who admire them say, their opinion is the only one that matters, and in general they are people who are narcissistic and when someone is against their opinions they simply ignore that person, the least they try is to reach an agreement, they avoid it as much as possible. These people can manage to manipulate their followers, humiliate them and try as far as possible to create a feeling of dependency, and even that they are doing them a favor.
It is often seen that this type of behavior weakens the self-esteem of the followers, people lose confidence and become dependent, they begin to enter a kind of Stockholm syndrome where they are hostages who begin to care for their kidnappers, Such is the case of politicians like Hugo Chávez Frías and Nicolás Maduro who are the perfect example for this type of imperious people.
Also within this we can put in the same bag all those people who have power and use it to humiliate those who do not have it, or who have little amount of power or opinion, then obviously they are crushed by these people and their way of be imperious
In order to deal with this type of person, the most important thing is to set a limit, you have to be firm with this type of person and let them know that we do not agree with the way they behave and that we expect them to treat us with respect. that our opinions are taken into account and that they are valued and above all we must remain calm and composure in these situations. Our communication must be clear and direct, always maintaining respect and good spirits and without trying to confront the other party, or be aggressive, and of course, in order to confront this type of person, it is very valuable to seek the support of friends, family or people who identify with us, so we will be able to bring this situation to a better end.
If you find yourself in a situation where you are being stepped on or trying to be overruled by an imperious person, I hope these tips help you and if you see that the situation is much more difficult, then seek professional help, who will surely be able to help you to resolve this complex situation.
And I hope with all my heart that you don't have to deal with imperious people or characters, because it is a very unpleasant thing.
Sad reality is that we find many imperious people around us in our daily lives...I don't understand what's the point of having such an attitude..
