Yeah, you bet it is, but most judgments are made by comparison.
I assumed that in this case, Liz was judging herself by a standard set by her peers, or a societal standard, as evidenced by her comment, "I have accomplished very few things, some would say."
Until we have a firm grasp of our own standards, we use the default standards of society and acquaintances.
