Typically to boast means to brag or to talk highly of yourself. Mostly this is used in context with an assumed achievement of your own works. For example, if you won the superbowl and were talking about your skills on the field. That would be boasting.
Now, depending on which verse you are drawing from you can have multiple connotations to go along with this ideal. The only important thing to remember is to try to know what the author was using the word for.
In 1 Corinthians 1:29 the author uses the word boast in a way which says we should be thankful for what was done for us and not to confuse this merciful grace with our own actions of righteousness.
In 1 Corinthians 1:31 the author again usese boast but in the context saying we should boast (more celebratory) in the Lord. Which was a teaching from the book of Jeremiah (9:24) which says we should be proud of knowing and doing what the Lord delights in.
