In reply to Self esteem? And humility..., posted by Racer on July 20, 2006, at 0:12:26
This reminds me of Aristotle's talk of courage.
He said that the virtue courage was the mean between cowardice and carelessness.
So, virtue is the mean between two vices?
Everything is about balance, at least that's how i see the world (Aristotle is the man).
here's an aristotle link:

> My T was talking about self esteem today, and said that it's on a continuum with narcissism, and the goal was to be somewhere in the middle, with some healthy narcissism and a good dose of humility. That got me thinking, and it set us off on that topic.
