    Я не хвастаюсь...
    Не ради хвастовства...
    etc.
    Another month ends. All targets met. All systems working. All customers satisfied. All staff eagerly enthusiastic. All pigs fed and ready to fly.

    Oh so these are 2 different phrases - 2 ways to say I don't boast?

    1. Я не хвастаюсь...
    2. Не ради хвастовства...
