17 Pens

Today I had to write a short bio about my work skills. For some reason it took an hour to write two sentences. I do not feel that this is because I lack confidence in my skills, in that there is none; I know what I can do and what I can not. (I will be the first to admit that I should try some of the “can’t”s, perhaps one day they will become “can”) I think the key for the delay was trying not to sound arrogant. I like to think that I am humble, but does thinking you are make you not? I also know that there are some areas where I have so much confidence in me and my thoughts that can forget to make room for others. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to promote oneself in a non “in your face” way?

Along these lines: I guess I could say that I am sure of myself unless I know I am not; when I am not sure I search for answers and do not settle until I find one or decide that it is something that I do not need to understand. I think there is great peace in accepting that somethings are beyond human comprehension.
