Imposter Syndrome has a bad rep.

And I totally understand why.

  • Success without self-validation is a very unnerving experience.
  • It just feels super dodge to have things fall down on your lap for no apparent reason.
  • Most of all, it makes you feel like a fake & a cheat, and you’re just bracing yourself for the day you’re finally gonna get found out.

How did this happen?

Let’s look at what we’ve been taught:

“There’s no such thing as a free lunch.”

“Money don’t grow on trees.”

“Beware if it sounds too good to be true.”

As a result…

  • You play down your achievements,
  • You get awkward with compliments,
  • You tell yourself “keep quiet” or “wait

In short, Imposter Syndrome puts you in self-sabotage mode.
