Feeling like a failure even when you’re successful
Or talented
Impostor syndrome is a feeling of being out of your death
It is a feeling of inferiority
A fear that you are getting away with something
That you’re not able to do your job
That one day you will be discovered
That you’ll be found out for being bad at what you do
That they’ve found you out
That you’re nothing but a fraud
That you were never good enough
You just lucked into it
You’re just faking everything
And somehow getting away with it
That you’ll never actually be good at what you’re doing
That you’re actually failing
Even when you know you’re not
Its something that can actually be used for good
You can use it to push yourself
Using it eventually most people realize that they deserve what you have
Some of the most successful or brightest people have dealt with it
Maya Angelou
Albert Einstein
You probably do too
It doesn’t mean you don’t have self esteem
It just means you feel like you don’t deserve it
Or you didn’t earn it
I deal with it maybe you do too
When you don’t feel like you deserve it or earned it
Prove it to yourself
Prove that you are not an impostor
