<p>[QUOTE=&quot;masterswimmer, post: 25836366, member: 102022&quot;]Don&#039;t your arms ever get tired? Continuously patting yourself on the back must get exhausting.</p><p><br /></p><p>I taught my competitive swimming children, from a very young age, that telling people you&#039;re a great swimmer, or any self accolade, is not what makes you great. You&#039;re great when others acknowledge your greatness and spread the word telling you and others that you&#039;re great that matters. If you have to tell people you&#039;re &#039;a genius&#039; or in your words, an even higher level genius, you might not be nearly as smart as you think.</p><p><br /></p><p>We have a saying in our family, SPS. I&#039;m sure you know what that means since you&#039;re a higher level genius than everyone here. However, for all the other &#039;lesser&#039; genius&#039;s, SPS is Self Praise Stinks.</p><p><br /></p><p>Try humble. It&#039;s a much classier, welcoming, endearing, approachable character trait.</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: And for the record, you&#039;ve touted your greater genius ~170 I.Q. enough times on this forum I&#039;m sure everyone already knows it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
