<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

When persuading someone to be an achiever, like me, the worst way to go about it is compliment their successes. The greatest fear of me or any achiever is to be too confident about our own competency.

To bring civilization into the picture, and destroy it as the achiever has been destroyed thus fostering his accomplishments—is an inverse scenario, in practice. Adversities to group situations often lead to war and not, say, self-publishing a book, as I have done.

I know it's nothing to print a book. But it's something to be criticized, and change. And it's something else to damage and harm a person's ego, or especially a group of people in a collective.

So naturally I have squeezed through the strainer in perfect form (alas, I must explain later the deadpan irony with which I say this) and my colleagues have all failed. I am the sole survivor of my own destructive path, and I have come out with sore muscles but unscathed.

And finally, I will admit my defeat. I am not in perfect form, after all. My greatest fear is true. I know nothing of my own value.
<bot>: I published a book because of criticism. Now I'm all alone with no friends and I know my book sucks, anyway
