People think “Oh just don't talk about your accomplishment”, that would cure your arrogance, make you humble, and it's not.
It's easy to change the look of it, but not easy how you actually feel. Most of the time, you want to know that you are still accepted after admitting your faults. Before you can actually do it without feeling the need to throw out some moralizing defense “I know I wasn't supposed to do it”. Or narcissistic defense “♪ It's me, hi I'm the problem ♫” 🤢
“How bold one gets when one is sure of being loved” is correct.
