There is, of course, such a thing as being too proud. You know you have crossed the line when the feeling of pride is itself the source of pride. Pride is excessive when it serves to bring harm to another.
Otherwise, don’t feel bad about feeling food about who you are. Don’t feel bad about doing a job well. Don’t get embarrassed when you triumph and someone recognizes it. There are many reasons to allow the positive emotions of a moment wash over you.
Just remember who you are, where you came from, and how many times you have been knocked down. Be proud, be humble, and strike a balance between the two.
