blistavih trenutaka

This is a paragraph from popular psychology book written in Croatian:
Svatko od nas ima mentalnu sliku o samom sebi. Ta slika može biti jasna, može biti maglovita ili je uopće ne moramo biti svjesni. Ipak, ona postoji u svima nama i pokazuje naše mišljenje o tome kakva smo osoba. To je mišljenje rezultat našega životnog iskustva, naših uspjeha i neuspjeha, poniženja i blistavih trenutaka.
I am unsure how to translate a phrase blistavih trenutaka - memorable moments, bright moments, splendid moments?
My translation so far is:
We all possess a self-image. It can be clear, blurry, or we don't even have to be aware of it. However, it exists in all of us and it shows our opinion of what kind of a person we are. This opinion is a result of our life experiences, our successes and failures, our humiliations and ______________.
If someone has a good idea/experience with it I would appreciate the help.
Thank you in advance.

So you can boost your reputation in one short moment of brilliance even if you have..
