lonelytraveler 5 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Always feel that people that brag tend to be insecure and solicit unwanted attention onto themselves. There doesn't seem like there is any good thing that come out of bragging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seokii 3,424 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 it's not "unwanted attention" if they want it lol. i mean, what is bragging anyway? is bragging just celebrating your achievements or does it have to be in the context of trying to minimize someone else's achievement or doing it excessively etc? even then, what is "excessively"... i think it's fine for people to celebrate their achievements lol it's good to take pride in your achievements. that's what keeps a lot of us going.

I meant unwanted attention from other people. What would you say is a good way to celebrate one's achievement that isn't obnoxious like bragging is?

GoAwayILY 1,957 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 You’ve got to brag during job interviews. They’ll only hire you if you tout yourself as the best of the best. You won’t get hired if you fade into the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego ista 1,344 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Sometimes ppl are just really proud of what they have or something everyone does it at some point Anyway it’s fine to brag if it’s not a habit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you say is a good way to celebrate one's achievement that isn't obnoxious like bragging is? obnoxiousness is subjective. it kind of just sounds like you resent hearing about other people's successes. why does it bother you so much?

I mean... that's just restraining yourself way too much? Why would you not mention anything at all? Everyone surely thinks of themselves some kind of way and if they do it positively it might lead to bragging, if they do it negatively it might lead to putting themselves down Just a find a balance and make sure it's not over the top and it should be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won’t get hired if you fade into the background. This. It's a fine balance to make sure you make yourself look good and talk yourself up while simultaneously not seeming like an arrogant self-important asshole.
