Hubris
It occurred to me yesterday that an antidote for hubris is taking failures more seriously than successes. That thought itself implies a certain amount hubris: antidote no less! But I still think it is directionally true: excuses are just too damn easy to find (“the easiest thing to find in an excuse” - you can quote me on that) and not soberly assessing our failures leads to complacency and inflated sense of self-worth.
