Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I keep my small wins to myself because it feels like bragging, so they quietly evaporate
- When someone close to me shares great news, I give a flat "oh nice" and steer the talk back to myself
- When something goes well I tend to quietly absorb the credit or just say "great team effort," and I never actually name who did what
- When something good happens I downplay it so I don’t seem like I’m bragging
- Something genuinely good happened today and I noticed I just kept it to myself and moved on
