ITT: Brag about yourself. (lemmy.zip)

It’s frowned upon to brag about yourself. But I feel like it’s good to hype yourself up, even if it is a little bit extreme or out of the ordinary! Post in this thread celebrating yourself and letting others know something you’re really good at! I’ll start…

I’m a really good coach. Strength and conditioning primarily but athletics overall. If an athlete comes to me and they have the mindset of improvement it’s a damn near guarantee that I will increase their athleticism and make them stronger, faster, more powerful, etc. I’ve trained young kids to become dominant high school athletes, high school athletes to get full ride scholarships to D1 universities, D1 athletes to get drafted to the NFL, MLB, and NBA, and I even trained a couple of professional athletes as well! All that said in a REALLY good strength and conditioning coach.

What can you brag about?!

I've gotten very good at cooking by trying around 200-300 recipes from all around the world. Whatever dish you're thinking of, I can probably make it perfectly and tell you it's origin and related dishes. I've made a system of my recipes where they are organized by origin country, allergies, diets, ratings, categories and tons more, and all ingredients are connected to more information and other recipes where they're used. I feel like I'm getting close to solving cooking as a whole by fixing all paper cuts and annoyances involved one by one

That’s so dope! I want to be a good cook and learn how to cook a variety of things from around the world. If you make your information into a website or app please Lemmy know. I’d definitely use it
