What inspired Bill Gates to give away so much of his hard-won fortune? How has Donald Trump succeeded so excessively, when his winning style could easily be his greatest liability?@95@#160;@85@@95@#160;@85@As the renowned emotion researcher Jessica Tracy reveals in @28@Take Pride@018@, each of these superachievers has been motivated by an often@95@#160;maligned emotion: pride.
