It's one thing to feel a pull and drive to do better, and to feel a little bad because you've unintentionally not reached your objective. It's another to feel shame or unworthiness, especially if that's being loudly injected from an external source. The former can be a good impetus for learning and growth. The latter is the opposite, and can build such that it can make a negative impact on your overall growth trajectory.

Much of that is also dependent on my state of mind too.
