The Napoleon complex is a way of thinking and self-esteem of a man (often of small stature), in which he tries in every possible way to compensate for his lack.
And it's not for nothing that this complex bears the name of the great commander and emperor, who came out of the lower classes and achieved everything in life on his own. Proving to everyone that you are not worse than others (or even better), asserting your own solvency - this often becomes a powerful engine of personal achievements of a person with a Napoleon complex. But each phenomenon can have both a light and a dark side.
It is important that a man does not begin to act out his inner dissatisfaction with his appearance on those around him, and above all on the closest people. Or, such a position of a "short man", if he is the boss in his organization, can significantly spoil the life of the entire working team.
In everyday life, men with a Napoleon complex can be both charming and completely unbearable. From a psychological point of view, this state of mind is the same inferiority complex that arises in men precisely against the background of small stature.
Although, to the purely physical factor itself, some childhood events may be mixed, which formed and consolidated negative self-esteem. It could be a lack of attention from parents, or some offensive words associated with small stature, which are forever engraved in memory and began to rule destructive behavior and thoughts.
Of the characteristic features of a person with a Napoleon complex, one can single out despotism, intolerance, a desire to rule everyone, hypertrophied self-confidence, pomp. All these qualities are caused by ordinary envy of other people of ordinary height.
To understand yourself, it is better to understand the internal driving motives of behavior to see the problem without embellishment - it makes sense to talk to a psychologist who, in several sessions, will help to correct or completely eliminate this problem.
