I've never considered it pride. I figured pride is about your image mostly, and I've never been bothered by how others perceive me. My great flaw in this department is arrogance. Sometimes this stops me from picking up things I should have, simply because I thought whatever I knew was better. Most likely it will happen again.

I have found though, by knowing what you can and can't do, arrogance can become a lot like self-confidence, which is considered a good thing.
