Imposter syndrome.  We all experience it to some degree or another.  And it can happen many times through the course of your career.  I’m actually feeling imposter syndrome to varying degrees as I expand into new fields this year. 

But why does this happen?  What at is at the root of this potentially crippling fear?

Comparison.  It’s really that simple.

We, often unconsciously, compare ourselves to what we perceive as others succeeding at the thing we’re trying to do.  And then we tell ourselves that we’re not measuring ip to that standard.

The crazy thing is, THERE IS NO STANDARD.  We’re holding ourselves accountable to very arbitrary measures when we should really only be setting our own standards.
