For the code you output, you need to recognize and accept that almost everything you write won't run in production for very long, if at all. There are exceptions, but it's mostly true. So take pride in the production, and don't stake too much on the outcome.

I do agree that everything you do is a part of you. Just don't focus too much on one thing, or the wrong things.
