<p>Coping with Imposter Syndrome - Imposter syndrome is a common struggle that undermines confidence and personal growth. The persistence to believe that &ldquo;I am not good enough&rdquo; or &ldquo;I am not successful&rdquo; despite the evidence means you are struggling with imposter syndrome. A feeling of #anxiety creeps in because of self-doubt and lack of confidence in the #success achieved, even though there is evidence of your competence.</p> <p>It often stems from perfectionism, #fearoffailure, or the belief that luck, not your skills, brought you success.</p> <p>1. Conquer negative self-talk: A constant need for perfection can get you stuck in a loop of negative self-talk, like &lsquo;I can't do this, it's not possible, it's hard&rsquo;. Conquering the internal critic requires you to step out of denial, develop self-awareness and then learn effective strategies to manage and unlock your true potential.</p> <p>2. Embrace your strengths and achievements: Take time to reflect on your accomplishments. Make a list of your strengths, skills, and past successes. This exercise helps shift the focus from self-doubt to recognizing your capabilities.</p> <p>3. Normalize failure: Making mistakes and experiencing setbacks is a normal part of growth. Every event and relationship is designed for our transformation. Don&rsquo;t take your failure personally and beat yourself down, use techniques like reframing it as an opportunity to learn and transform.</p> <p>4. Seek support: According to a 2020 review, 9%&ndash;82% of people experience impostor syndrome. It's normal and common to need assurance and support. Also, vulnerability is a strength as it requires courage to be authentic. Reach out to trusted friends, mentors, or colleagues for encouragement and perspective.</p> <p>5. Practice self-care: Take care of your physical and mental well-being. Prioritize self-care activities that help reduce stress and promote relaxation. Treat yourself with compassion, just as you would support a friend in a similar situation.</p> <p>Often, high-performing individuals #experience imposter syndrome. A #KPMG study finds 75% of female executives across industries have experienced imposter syndrome in their careers. The pressure to perform and the oscillation between hyper-criticism and hyper-praise can create conflict and self-doubt in an individual&rsquo;s mind. Overcoming #impostersyndrome is a process that takes time and effort. As you embrace your journey towards self-love, remember that you are capable, deserving, and destined for success. Be patient with yourself and celebrate your progress to regain confidence, self-worth, and thrive.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
