/lit/ - Literature

I have a hard time accepting that I have faults. I handed in an assignment about a week ago and while I was working on it I knew that it wasn't good and I didn't really care. I got it to the level that I knew it would be passing (and it was only pass/fail) and settled for that, but even though this was a conscious strategy it still bothers me when the professor criticised it in his comments. It lights a fire in my chest, I want to prove him wrong, prove my superiority even though I consciously chose inferiority this time. It's silly.
