What are you proud of yourself for? Do you ever feel a little guilty when you feel like you did something good or really well? Lots of people feel like they don't want to be "too prideful." They feel like they are bragging when they acknowledge their own accomplishments.
So what's wrong with that? Nothing. However people who don't feel comfortable patting themselves on their well deserved backs once in a while also tend to be the same people who can't accept a compliment either. They feel that if they simply say "thank you" when being complimented it means they are being conceded... instead of actually daring to believe the person is right who is saying something nice about them.
The quote above "No bird soars too high, if he soars with his own wings." also seems to be saying something more. If your accomplishments truly come from within you and are not motivated by what others think you should do, there is no pride that is too great. What do you think? What do you feel is right for you?
