Welcome to Brazen Careerist!

People are invariably the opposite of what they claim most loudly to be. Bullies are cowards, the overtly moral are corrupt, the overly confident are terrified, the aggressively honest are liars, the officiously expert are unskilled. Strength, courage, kindness, honesty, excellence, and brilliance does not need to advertise itself. I have lived by this rule for many decades, and, I regret to say, I have yet to find it fail.
