I've wondered the same about myself. What I've come to about it is that there are definitely different types of programmers, and I have found what type I am and what makes me unique. Also I've come to that I may not always program just to program. I have higher goals that could use programming as a means, and for my specific goals I don't need to be the best. A good example is Pieter Levels [1]. He is not the best programmer, but he makes a lot of amazing (and revenue generating) things.
