Most people are attracted to those who speak positive things especially about themselves.
However, it can be challenging to talk about your accomplishments without putting off those around you or appearing as though you are bragging.
Here's how to talk about your achievements without sounding arrogant.
1. Discuss your achievements in a team centered way
Do not talk in a more personal way that indicates you have accomplished a lot on your own. State some of the support be it financial or moral you have received from friends. Most people take discussions involving teamwork more seriously.
2. Use humour
This is a great way of sharing what you have achieved without being seen as if you are bragging. You can use unexpected facts to pinpoint what is more memorable to you and this will have a positive impact on your friends.
3. Avoid comparing yourself to others
Restrain yourself from comparing your achievements to those of other people. This will send a bad image to your friends and it will appear as if you are bragging. Just state what you have achieved without insinuating you are smarter than others.
4. Comment with meaningful words
Do not invalidate your friend's views or downplay their achievements. You should support them using positive words if you do not wish to come across as if you are only bragging about what you have achieved.
