Boasting Sounds Raw

The shallowness (triviality, meanness) of ego is expressed in self praise or bragging. It makes you unbearable and laughable before others. People might like to praise someone, but if he starts praising himself then it would certainly reverse the impression. Even you are honestly analyzing yourself in that effort; no one would respect your self-admiration. Forget about friendship or help, people do not even like to meet arrogant, self-boasting or pompous fellows. They may not always express it on your face because of social etiquettes or fear, etc, but in reality, they would like to avoid you as far as possible if you are egotist.
You should compare your qualities and achievements with those of the great men and women renowned in human history. A camel regards himself tallest only until it doesn't stand beneath a mountain. You should meet and know the great persons and eminent talents who are revered by people to know that you are not so high as your arrogance might assume. You will also learn from them that modesty is an essential quality for prestige.
The moment you think yourself as big or heave achieved something significant, your natural quest for ascent will decelerate and might block after sometime. Don't worry and don't hurry your virtues. Your abilities will certainly be known to people via your deeds. You don't have to declare them yourself.

Thoughts are Seeds of Deeds
Narrow-mindedness, selfish boundaries, and misery are certainly not the natural components of the Supreme Creation of the Almighty. These kinds of heinous things are the products of our vices, our wrong ambitions and thoughts. Because of our ignorance and unawareness, they have silently invaded our inner self too and eaten much of our inner strength and sublime powers. This is why? Our progress or wellbeing largely remains confined to the body and physical resources; there is hardly any sigh of mental, intellectual or emotional evolution, spiritual refinement or growth of virtuous prosperity.
There in only one cause of all misery and agony in this world and that is - the misdeeds of humans. And what drives it? Maligned thinking. Thoughts are like seeds which give rise to the trees of karmas (actions): joy, sorrows and sufferings are their fruits.
It is indeed pathetic that despite living in the limitless treasure of joy that Nature barrier of prejudiced convictions and selfish passions. As a result, we get entrapped in the smog of abrupt, fallacious, irrelevant thoughts and often remain fearful, jealous, worried and depressed in one way or the other. All our misery is an outcome of our inner bankruptcy. Its time we realize it and improve ourselves right from the root of our thinking rather than attributing our failures and sorrows to - "ill omen", "lack of resources or support" or "destined life".
