I agree, but would add a caveat. I feel like many Millennials have grown up in a world where we were so afraid of failure we over-emphasized success. Everyone is a winner, everyone gets a sticker of some kind.
As many times as I see people not wallowing in their success, I see people who wallow in it way too much. A balance is really important to ensure that one success doesn't derail you or over-inflate your ego too much that you become, by consequence, more sensitive to risk and afraid to fail.

The 'everyone gets a sticker' mentality is totally harmful. That's why it's important to realize success on your own terms — you don't need the sticker.
