symptoms of pride

I read somewhere pride is not just showing off what we have. it rears its ugly head in other forms:

fearing failure too much.
comparing ourselves with others too much.

Are these fears from people around us, or ourselves, or some other external voice or God?
What is the root reason why we fear so much?

What is the fine line between "healthy pressure" from people around and the real, frustrating, fear that numbs and confuses us about the direction we have planned for ourselves and what God has shown/spoken to you personally?

Is it a need or a want to follow what our peers are doing and saying?
It it is not a need, why is it a must or a want then?
