Pride

While smug or copetitive pride can be a negative thing, feelings of pride in your accomplishments can be a form of grattitude turned inward and are a great from of happinessto indulge in.

You can take pride in your work and your family, your home and your self, and in anything you put effort, care, and love into.

You can cultivate a healthy sense of pride by including personal accomplishments in your gratitude journal or keeping a list of "wins" at the end of each day. 

This isn't the same as bragging or being "full of yourself"—you're not saying that you're better than others because of your accomplishments, but that you're a better form of yourself, and you're appreciating this fact.
