Words like...

adamant, arbitrary, argumentative, arrogant and autocratic, all pertain to the pejorative 'I' - the victim, the poor me complex or the ego.

People in these states take little, or no responsibility for their thoughts, feelings or behavior. Instead, a person displaying these attitudes will enjoy shifting the blame. Often on to external circumstances. They may speak the words, "It's not my fault," to absolve themselves of responsibility.

When we transform these fear-driven states, we begin to take responsibility for our attitudes and behavior and we can start to use words like; aware, awakened, humble, relevant, cooperative. Words more akin to an expansive mindset.
