What is the negation of self-doubt? It would seem to be self-trust, for self-doubt asserts that ‘this’ sentence is unprovable, while self-trust asserts that ‘this’ sentence is provable; but it’s a different ‘this’ for each one. Self-reference implies a twist in logic. Paradox pervades this study.
In fact the negation of self-doubt is not self-trust but self-shame; and the negation of self-trust is not self-doubt but self-pride.
(not D) = not not prv D = prv D = prv not (not D)
Therefore (not D) fits the self-shame equation S = prv not S.
(not T) = not prv T = not prv not (not T)
Therefore (not T) fits the self-pride equation P = not prv not P.
