Bragging Rights

Don The Idea Guy

When do you have the right to brag a bit about yourself? Peggy Klaus is the author of “Brag! The Art of Tooting Your Own Horn Without Blowing It” and according to her it might be more often than you think. The real question becomes can you brag about yourself in a graceful manner that puts your best foot forward, or are you more likely to do it in a grating way that ends up putting that foot in your mouth?

Peggy’s newly defined manner of bragging can be an effective way to showcase your skills and accomplishments in order to win business and positively influence people. A good place to begin is the Brag! Take-12 Questionnaire. It will help you to focus on personal elements needed in the creation of “brag bites” that will be crystal clear and interesting to those who don’t already know you.

The $29 audio program just became available and it features Peggy Klaus! Click here for details.

The Ugly Back

Everyone goes to the museum to admire the pretty fronts of artistic tapestries, but the ugly backs face the wall and are rarely on display.
