You…

…are an achiever who, by most criteria, is considered successful, although you struggle to see yourself this way.

…see your successes as luck or just due to putting in the hard work, never because you are inherently good at what you do.

…are intelligent, even though you don’t always feel that way. And, even though you recognize you are intelligent, it’s tough for you to maintain an image of yourself as smart. You are constantly second-guessing yourself.

…have profound doubts about your abilities, no matter how much praise you’ve received, how many degrees you’ve earned, or how high you’ve risen. No matter what you’ve accomplished or what people think, deep down you’re convinced that you are an imposter, a fake, and a fraud.

…seem incredibly able and accomplished to everyone else around you. But secretly you believe you are merely passing for competent. People who know or work with you have no idea that you lie awake at night wondering when they will finally discover what an incompetent person you really are, and how long can you keep up with “looking good”.

Do any of these sounds like you? If so, you suffer from Imposter Syndrome:

• Do you chalk your success up to luck, timing, or computer error?
• Do you believe “If I can do it, anybody can”?
• Do you agonize over the smallest flaws in your work?
• Are you crushed by even constructive criticism, seeing it as evidence of your ineptness?
• When you do succeed, do you secretly feel like you fooled them again?
• Do you worry that it’s a matter of time before you’re “found out”?

You’re ready to stop letting these beliefs hold you back. You’re ready to finally acknowledge your awesomeness and accept that you are a successful, intelligent, and skilled person. There is no room anymore for denying or minimizing these traits.
