Ever noticed how insatiable the drive is for people to justify themselves? Sometimes I even catch myself doing it on auto-pilot. I don't even realize what is happening - Someone questions me and I'm instinctively off to the races answering for myself.
The weird thing is that I know how ridiculous I sound , but I keep talking anyway. Furthermore, the harder we work at telling people our resume, the more we undermine the qualities about ourselves we are probably trying to defend. ...one of life's nasty little ironies.
The truth is, no one in the real world cares about your resume, only your results. If you want to convince the world of your worth (and hopefully your worth is not tied to their opinion), show them results. It takes restraint and patience, but in the end, the results of your actions will speak much louder than your words.

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. (If he will be possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll I thankful, bye friend).
I find if someone needs to tell me how good they are at something then they are probably mediocre at best.
