Not so modest!
Hide not your talents, they for use were made. What’s a sun-dial in the shade.
Benjamin Franklin
Being humble is a good thing.
Being too modest about your talents is a bad thing.
While you should not brag about whatever you are good (or bad) at, you should not hide it either. Chances are, somebody needs your certain set of skills, but as long as they don’t know of your talent, nothing happens.
Show people what you are made of, do not be afraid of promoting your skills, do not be afraid of self-confidence.

Balance
Talent develops in tranquillity, character in the full current of human life.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
At times it is useful to work on your own in order to increase your skills, in order to learn new things.
At other times you have to throw yourself at people and at life to build charakter.
Do not neglect any of those aspects.
