Your greatest accomplishments, no matter how impressive you think them to be, are some else's worst nightmare. Your most prized possession is another man's disgusting chunk of trash. Be careful what you brag about.

About This Quote

It is human nature to brag about our accomplishments. Sometimes it is good to brag on yourself, but be careful with the way you talk about yourself. There are people who brag about their worst accomplishments. They can be a bit obnoxious, but it is a common human trait.

When you have a great accomplishment, don't brag about it too much. People will find out about your accomplishments and it may put someone else off, thinking that you only think of yourself as a great person. You should not let your achievements go to your head, but instead take pride in the things you have accomplished.
