The Brag Basket is our tradition of sharing. The basket is always free and open all weekend, this one April 6-8, 2012. Have some good news this week? Put it in the Brag Basket. And have a beer.

Don’t hold back because of that word, “brag.” When you hold back, you hide your good news and accomplishments that might inspire others. Even though I call this the Brag Basket, it’s not really about bragging. It’s about sharing.
What can you do in the Brag Basket?
- introduce yourself
- share some great news from this week
- congratulate a friend
- laugh about something wonderful that you tried that failed
- applaud for each other
Speak up and add yourself or another deserving soul in the comments. It lets you meet each other a bit. Reading each others’ stories brings us a bit closer to being a community.
How does it work? You write a comment on this post. We all cheer, and everyone feels great.
This is not an ad. (I delete the ads.) It’s a conversation with friends. So jump in. And remember to cheer for each other.

I started a company, 25 (mainly Oklahoma) companies and organizations became customers, it helps them gather contact information and connect better with their customers and fans, it helped raise money at an annual non-profit dinner. Seth Godin checked it out and gave me some helpful feedback. If anyone wants to give a trial let me know – http://www.redmegaphone.com
