Feeling like an imposter?

Posted on by philipdodson

This is something that most people suffer from at some point in life.

We think that we are going to be found out as a fraud, after all, ‘who am I to say that I know what I am talking about?’.

The thing is everyone is an expert and at the same time, none of us is. It is after all, subjective.

Never fear being found out as there are no black or white, right or wrong only different shades of opinions.

It is about having self-belief that we are good enough, we are worthy, and our opinions, skills and achievement are no more or less valid than anyone else’s.

Comparison to others will make us feel like an imposter, so don’t compare.

Belief is a powerful thing once you master it.

Try something, belief comes a little bit, try again it comes some more.

It is a self-fulfilling thing, but you have to overcome fear and start. If you never start, you’ll never believe, but be patient, it does not come all at once.

Once you start, you have to keep going, step by step, day by day.

Finally, ignore others, as the people who will love what you do will believe when you do, they’re the people who matter and others simply don’t matter.

Try, try, try and try, belief comes stronger at every step.
