Fear of Self Promotion

What is it that makes you hesitate to broadcast your accomplishments and capabilities? Reluctance to promote yourself holds you back from achieving personal fulfillment and financial success.

I read this on a blog recently and it made me think about how much this applies to those in SG music. It's as if self-promotion is some sort of dirty word. People are afraid that if they spend too much time of self-promotion they will look less spiritual. BUNK! Get over it. There is nothing dirty or wrong with self promotion.

Don't believe me, talk to Kathy Crabb.

And you do love to toot your own horn....especially on "your" message board where you feel full enough of yourself to belittle Kenny Hinson. I have seen people fall under the conviction and give their life to Christ because of the annointing and the power you could feel when he sang or preached.

Sandra, having an opinion of something and self-promoting aren't the same thing - at all.

Love your blog!
I think it is cool to brag on yourself. If you dont, sometimes, no one else will. You gotta let yourself know youre doin a good job.
And Sandra, Benny Hinn has lead people to Christ too. Doesnt necessarily mean I like the guy. It is ok to promote yourself AND to express your opinions. But as Chris put it, they arent the same thing.
So chill.

Don't fear it, but tend to be very suspicious of those who do it easily testking 70-624. To paraphrase the old Memorex commercial testking MB2-631: "Are they real or just a legend in their own mind?" testking N10-004 In my opinion, the quality of your work should be what promotes you, not you tooting your own horn.
