Oh dear, the impostor syndrome strikes again!

We can describe the Impostor Syndrome (IS) as the persistent inability to believe that one's success is deserved or has been legitimately achieved due to one's efforts or skills.

In common words, it is that feeling when you think you don't have what it takes to achieve something.

It's fun because you will first be happy about this great news. Still, suddenly, those insecurities arise and make you feel uncomfortable and insecure about yourself being the wrong person, that maybe it's a mistake you being chosen.

Hasn't it been your hard work that has brought you this? So why do you think you should worry about that?

It's contradictory, it's unreal, it's just your mind making you go through a hard time. This is entirely related to moving from your comfort zone into exploring something new.

Every change has challenges, new learnings, and new experiences. It's adding value to you as a person and as a professional. We should become more accustomed to it.

Remember, you are learning. It's OK to make mistakes. It's a normal process. Learning is not perfection. It's such a back-and-forth until you get it.

Do you remember that feeling when you finally complete a challenging task? Just try to focus on the first task. When you accomplish it, you will feel like the king of the world again.

Believe in yourself. Believe in your capabilities and skills. Believe what you have achieved; you earned it. Choosing you was not a mistake; you have what it takes.

Enjoy this moment. Everything is going to be alright, as it always has been.
