Some good thoughts here.

You may have a hard time "bragging on yourself" but in a way that is good. When we have a valid self-concept we do so by first seeing that everyone is equally valid. We are not better than anyone. But we are just as good as others, too.

Those of us who have learned to speak publicly get over most nervousness at the moment we stopped thinking about ourselves and started thinking about what we had to say. If the content is good, that's all that counts. If it isn't, then we better be nervous! I see the net as the same.

Many of the participants in this forum have great content. As a result they can be happy to market with enthusiasm.

Good success to all.
