PRIDE
64
Pride is a self-focused emotion. It arises when we have a subjective experience of accomplishing, achieving, succeeding, feeling confident, being productive and fulfilled. It is rooted in internal attributions – we often feel pride when we attribute the reasons for our success to our skills and decisions (Reeve, 2018).
“When people look down upon at you” “A euphoric moment” “A misconception of self-esteem” INTRAS’ users (Spain)
“Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
“Every woman that finally figured out her worth, has picked up her suitcases of pride and boarded a flight to freedom, which landed in the valley of change.”
