Be thankful in the Brag Basket

BySmall Biz Survival
brag basketEach week, I open the Brag Basket. This week, we’re opening early for Thanksgiving. What are you thankful for?
 
Obviously, it’s designed as a fun place for you to share your projects and accomplishments. But you can also cheer for other people, give shout outs, congratulate, and even give someone a well-deserved pat on the back.

The Brag Basket is open for everyone, whether from a small town, a big city, or anywhere in the world. (But it’s true that I love small town brags!)

Will you put something in the Brag Basket this week? You can brag on a friend, your own project, yourself, others, anything! You don’t need special permission, and you don’t have to be from a small town. Just leave a comment right here. There’s no deadline, so you can brag anytime during the weekend, and I’ll open a fresh Brag Basket each Friday.

  1. Hi, I saw your tweet and came on over. My first book is published, and I wrote it with 5 co-authors. 3 of us live on ranches and farms and 3 in small/medium size cities, and I see you love small towns.
    Our book is “Scrapbook of Christmas Firsts: Stories to Warm Your Heart and Tips to Simplify Your Holiday.” Full of no cost and low cost tips on creating family traditions about giving, putting Jesus at the center. Cookie recipes too!

  3. On the potential of doublng or tripling my staff. Spending alot of time calculating the true cost of an employee, profit per person, Local OKC HR companies, etc. This is much more exciting than keep my head burried in C# code all day.

  5. After getting some kudos last weekend on interactions with Robert Scoble and Tim O’Reilly, I wrote a blog post that was more of a manifesto.

    The next day, feeling like Jerry Maguire after his ill-timed publishing effort, I hesitantly walked into the office. It turns out, this was just the thing many employees were waiting for. My day was capped off by the Chief Marketing Officer sending along an email, noting that he received so many positive emails about my post and that he thought I was doing a great job.

    Topping that next week will be tough, but I’ll give it a shot. :)

  7. i have a ‘published’ ebook (that people actually downloaded. I have a job that after almost a year is still a delight. And I (looking at the past year, if that’s what you want for thankful) know that a number of people that I knew online actually have faces and voices in real life.

  11. I’d like to brag on my niece Cassidie and her husband. They completely remodeled their home which must have been a lot of work. They hosted our Thanksgiving lunch this year, and it was a wonderful day.
