Pride, Arrogance, Confidence, Hope

Pride is silly. Pride is thinking that what you did is really as important as you think it was. It probably wasn't, though it also probably won't hurt anyone for you to think so.

Arrogance is foolish. Arrogance is when you think what you did or who you are gives you the right to something in the future. Your right to whatever it is will not be honored by someone, and you'll get pissed for no good reason.

Confidence enables. Confidence is the firm foundation that based on what you have done, you have a good chance at success in the future. Starting with reasonable expectations of success is a good thing.

Faith comforts. Faith is confidence without the past performance. Sometimes that's a bad idea, but usually it doesn't hurt and might help.
