You're not either a good guy or an asshole. There is a lot inbetween. Sometimes good people make mistakes, but I don't think it's good to instantly label them as assholes.

I agree. I think the problem with me is that I’m very aware of how I can be better and why I should be, but I’m failing to make it happen. My main blocker is typically myself; what I think I need, what I want, generally protecting my self interest to an unnecessary degree.

In my defence I think I’ve gotten better about it over time and have taken real steps to do better. It still bothers me quite a bit sometimes. I know I should do better.
