Be inspired but not proud.

About This Quote

Be inspired but not proud. This quote is perfect for people who just want to feel good about themselves. Be inspired but not proud. If you are inspired to do something, that’s great.

However, if you just go ahead and do it because you “think you should” then you are not doing anything but feel like a fraud. If it doesn’t come naturally to you, there is no point in trying it at all.
