This man speaks the truth. Rare is it that anyway is they way the perceive themselves to be. Do you know how many guys swear up and down are better than I was at my job at my peak? They would tell me boss how they deserved my pay range and the boss always put us head to head. I won free lunches for playing. But it never failed they swear they were as good if not better even when the proof was in front of them. I bring this up because, are you as good as you say or are you not looking at yourself correctly?
