I would try to disassociate my work income from my personal worth as a worker. We always leave some money on the table, but can always do all the steps we can to reduce how much we are leaving on it.

In case I have an offer that I'm actually happy with, personally I'm the opposite. I already reached my expected range, failing to negotiate for more doesn't worry me so I can do it more confidently, which may kind of help me in a way. Don't ask for too little tho, they may notice they can get you less than what you are asking by holding firm.
