I think there is an unclean way to value oneself and noble way. However, you doing so would be in rebellion to God's name entrusted in you. God's Name pushes you one direction but through his power you might rebel against the light and the balance. At the end, all good and evil is from God because he is the author of the system we are in, but from another perspective, evil is more worthy to be attributed to ourselves, while our good is more worthy to be attributed to God.
