Answer:
the need to feel good about oneself
Explanation:
According to my research on studies conducted by various psychologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question George gave in to the need to feel good about oneself. This can be said because the only reason George did not ask for feedback was because he was feeling good about his accomplishment and did not want that to go away because of the possibility of negative feedback.
