I recently did the same thing! And I thought I had gotten so much better with my self esteem. It was when I was talking to my boss at my last job, he said he admired me because instead of just sitting around whining, I dived in and did something about my situation. So what do I say? "Oh yeah, well, it was kind of a freak thing, I think I just happened to be in the right place at the right time." As soon as I said it I realized what I had done! He looked at me kind of funny too.
