Strongly disagree. As a swede I've been taught my entire life not to think I'm special or in any way better at anything than anyone else. It's only in recent years I've come to realize that being good at something does actually give you the right to say you're good at it as long as it's true and not empty bragging.
That's not to say Swedes aren't hard working but you'll rarely hear a swede talk about their achievements in the way a person from the US would for instance.
