you know what I told you I have to do this weekend? I've felt like a fluke all week because of it.
I know I can tell a convincing story as to why marketing is important and cite good examples, give proper analogies that are even relatable. it's all set in my head.
I've heard a global founder or two tell me I'm good at what I do, received accolades from fellow people in my workspace. but I still feel like I'm not really HIM.
and I know I know it but I can't help but feel like I'm not... good enough?
unfortunately twin, I don't have words of consolation neither can I give sentences with solutions.
but I feel you. I get it too.
hopefully, you find ways to overcome it and shine above the self-doubt.
hopefully, we find ways to conquer this syndrome that is paradoxically draining (mostly) and sometimes motivating.
I struggle with imposter syndrome and no matter how many great things I do or find my self in, I always downplay or think it mere luck— "oh, it could have been anyone", "it's actually not even that great", "I didn't do anything special"— I want to belive the fastest and most efficient way to combat this is CBT.
When these voices come, it's essential to affirm to your self, and remind your self that you are deserving of great things and you did infact achieve said things. 💗

Oh Will 🫂
Let’s just get more proof of work in the bag and hopefully, we can be encouraged by them when we feel low.
i feel like it just keeps coming back at irregular intervals, and we gotta remind ourselves that we deserve all that is given and right here.
I think so too. Sometimes, it’s hard to remember and remind yourself though. That’s why I want that brag document.
You seem to be an intelligent person. Are you perhaps overthinking this one aspect of your career? Anyway, it makes for good writing.
I totally relate to this write up.
