\u201cLet another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips\u201d<\/span> (Proverbs 27:2).<\/p>\n

We live in a time when it is rather common for people to praise themselves. Employers are aware that those who write their own resumes, hoping to be hired, often greatly exaggerate their own abilities and talents. This tendency has been recognized in worldly circles for a long time, and has even been given a name\u2014the Dunning-Kruger effect. This refers to people with limited knowledge or competence in a certain area who greatly overestimate their own understanding and ability in that area.<\/p>\n

The Word of God wisely tells us not to praise ourselves, but rather to let someone else do it. This does not mean that we should avoid saying on a resume that we have training in a particular area, but we must be careful not to compliment ourselves. Let others do that, for they will be much more honest than we will.<\/p>\n
