Toot your own horn. Pat yourself on the back.

More people should brag about the good things they are doing. Sure, the haters will come out to hate, but think of who you can inspire. You got an A on your test? You're going to Brazil for the first time? You released an album? Wow! Wow! and Wow! If it's good for you, it's good for me. Share it, shout it. I will not get sick of it.

Some people don't agree. Some Yahoo! Answers (oh you!) respondents think bragging is annoying. I think they can take a healthier stance. One of them says, "I feel that these kinds of people are just trying to make others believe they live these amazing, great lives and everything is perfect, but in reality it's not." Why not just be happy for them? It really would make you happier to be happy for them. Maybe they realize their lives are not perfect so they are focusing on what is good. Try it. It feels wonderful.

Spread your joy. Let it fly. I love seeing it, love hearing it.
