-
healthy,happy environment, people don't scream at you about how bad you're doing
-
but they compliment how good you are and
-
that could lead to an inflated self-esteem
-
on the part of people in certain domains.
-
Another possibility is there's different criteria for goodness.
-
For a driver, for instance, when I ask you to rank how good you are as a driver,
-
what people often do is they think--they say, "I'm better than average,"
-
but what they do is they focus on one aspect of their driving.
-
So, some of you might say,
-
"Hey, I'm just a great parallel parker so I'm a great driver."
-
Others might say, "I'm very careful, great driver."
-
Others might say, "I take chances no one else will--great driver,"
