There's also culture informing our responses. Americans are seen as quite braggadocios by other nations. Europeans, particularly in the North, value quiet humility. In the USA, self-aggrandizement is so normalized (for men) that people actually admire and elect blatant narcissists. So when cultures come together, it can be a lot to navigate.
💙 A question for you:
What’s something you’ve done well lately that you’ve been minimizing?
Maybe you called it luck. Said you just helped. Gave everyone else the credit. Or decided it wasn’t a big enough deal to mention.
Try naming it without shrinking it: "I did this. I’m proud of it."
If you’re comfortable, tell us one thing you’re giving yourself credit for today. No disclaimer required.
