Has anyone ever experienced imposter syndrome?
According to Wikipedia: Impostor syndrome is a psychological phenomenon where highly accomplished individuals experience persistent self-doubt and fear being exposed as a "fraud". Despite overwhelming evidence of their competence, they attribute success to external factors like luck or timing rather than their own abilities.
I've experienced it before at one of my earlier jobs in life. It's a really difficult mindset to get out of and ultimately sets you up for failure.
