    Low self-esteem?
    And because we don't see ourselves as "perfect" even though, we will never be able to be perfect, since it's impossible, but I guess that we either want to be perfect or we want to be as close as perfect as it can be.

    I don't watch the Olympics that much... So I have no clue who that even is, I'm sorry.

    I guess we all would like to reach some level of perfection; we'd also like to demand better of ourselves.

    because we know ourselves the best, therefore expect more out of ourselves.

    We're not only hard on ourselves, but we are sometimes hard on others.

    Please consider this quote from the old "Leave It To Beaver" television series:

    June: "Oh Ward ... Don't be so hard on the Beaver"

    Because if we're not that makes us...lazy, apathetic, and the like...so we feel anyway.

    That's when we thought we were invicible, then we learn and get more lenient.
