Pride
Pride is not a vice. Pride is not imbalanced. It’s not over reaching. Pride finds no fault, hubris finds no right. It’s when pride turns into deception that it is destructive. Pride is about what is. Hubris is about what you think is, or what you think should be.

“Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and importance, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem, and personal satisfaction.” Margaret Thatcher (British Politician and Prime Minister. b.1925)
