Go ahead and brag

Sometimes, we all need to proudly proclaim what we're good at. We are scared to, because, then we just sound like we are bragging, which has a negative connotation. But you know what? We NEED to brag. We need to OWN what we're good at! So...go ahead and brag! What are you amazing at??

  2. I'm not amazing at anything, but I'm good at a lot of things. I'm good at singing, dancing, and pretty much anything musical. I'm good at solving logical puzzles. I'm good at most academic work. I'm pretty good at making videos, when I'm willing to put my mind to it. I'm good at writing, especially poetry. I'm good at taking my time and being patient when trying to accomplish a task. I'm good at noticing small errors like grammatical mistakes. Honestly though, I think Billy Currington summed up my skills better than I ever could:

    "I aint much for mowing thick grass. I'm too slow for working too fast. I don't do windows, so honey, don't ask...but I'm pretty good at drinking beer."

    1. Haha! Love Billy!

      Nick-Everyone is amazing at SOMETHING. Sometimes we can't see it in ourselves. I've always LIKED writing, but until I had people tell me I was great at it, I never really believed that, ya know? Anyway, everyone has something they are awesome at, and I'm guessing your awesome is something you have already mentioned!

  4. I'm good at building up others by giving them genuine praise. I'm good at being optimistic (most of the time). And, I'm great at talking!
