You always have the most healthy outlook on things. It's not narcissism or inexperience; I think we're supposed to enjoy our work, both the process and the finished product.
In a very unhealthy way, I think I'm driven more by negative impulse than positive. So, my habits center around being immensely dissatisfied, which in turn makes me try something else. Occasionally I look at something and giggle because I'm pleased -- usually dialogue. I'm always trying to get my voice out of the dialogue, so when it really seems like there's another voice there; I know it was a success.

Lack of self-expectations is a good thing!
