Summary
This quote suggests that if you have achieved something or accomplished a certain task successfully, it is not considered bragging to talk about it or acknowledge your achievement. It implies that boasting or bragging is only applicable when one talks about accomplishments that they haven't actually accomplished themselves. In other words, the quote emphasizes the notion that self-confidence and pride in one's achievements are justified when they are based on actual accomplishments.
