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 can cook better than at least half the people I know (and im being humble). I can cook nearly anything, with the capability to pull complex recipies off in the first go. My only limitations are ingredient availablity.

some people are bakers, some cooks. Im both. Im not great at cake decorating though, but it'll taste great at least

As a chef, not a baker, the fact that you can pull off both says you should at least look into chef's and bakers schools. Maybe don't do it as a career, but you clearly have some talent there that would allow you to have a lot of positive feedback from others, and a sense of personal growth and accomplishment by learning how to make food even more efficiently. The main focus of both schools isn't proper artistic technique, it's efficient industrial scale processing of foods. That allows for one to breeze through the prep and truly master the artistic techniques that one may want to use.
